Doug and Rosie Huggon received the award at the club’s recent annual general meeting. Doug moved to Penrith in the late 1980s and has been an instrumental part of the club for more than 35 years, it said. Doug has held roles including chief coach, chair and secretary, but, he said, his real passion was supporting the development of young swimmers. He formulated and led the clubâs reorganisation into its current squad format. The club said: “He has been a strong influence on many young lives at the club. “Dougâs outstanding efforts towards bringing out the best in swimmers is immeasurable as he has coached numerous swimmers to achieve national accolades as well as promoting the lifelong enjoyment swimming can provide to all.”
