Welcome to
Arnhall Swimming Club Coaches Section

In this section we will introduce the various members who unselfishly give their time and effort in order to teach our swimmers their strokes and techniques.


Head Coach
Drew Burnett

I joined the club at the age of five and apart from a break away for about five years have been involved ever since. First as a swimmer / water polo player in the old Dundee Baths then on to coaching at the age of 18. At the age of 20 I took over the job of head coach and held the post for 3 and-a-half years until I had to leave due to work commitments. I am now in my second stint as a coach for the club returning when my children became involved. I am currently Head Coach with the Club. I also assist with team duties for the Impact Training Squad and I was the Area Manager for S.A.S.A. Flying Start Programme now known as The Academy.


Premier League Team Manager
Neil Kiddie

Neil took over the management of the Premier League Team in the 2002 season. He is also currently an Assistance Coach with the club and is enjoying the rewards that the Premier Team are excelling themselves, finishing joint second this season.


Second Division Team Manager           Charlie White

Charlie joined the club when his sons became involved in swimming.  Since then he has served on the committee as the Fundraising Convenor and subsequently the second division team Manager.  He also assists the club by coaching at the Olympia and the Harris.


Child Protection Officer              Gillian Burnett

I was asked if I could help out at Dundee Arnhall and teach the young beginners in the toddlers pool when I was a 15 year-old competitive swimmer – and I’m still helping now!  I enjoyed the challenge and seeing the non-swimmers progress to swimmers and decided to sit the swimming teacher’s exams.  I teach and coach mainly the younger members, including swimmers who compete in the Premier League and Second Division teams, and also those who attend MAGIC swimming at Craigie High School.  My full-time job is teaching primary and secondary pupils to swim in a Dundee School.
