Report of the Director of World Class Operations IPC European Championships, Berlin The Chairman set the scene for this important discussion by reminding the board that this was the one major opportunity to challenge our programme through to the London Olympoics and therefore wished nothing to be left on the table. The DoWCO advised that this event was a key performance benchmark competition for Disability Swimming for Great Britain had finished second in the medal table behind the Ukraine. The Board were pleased to note that the team had achieved their UK Sport target and whilst there are some challenges the results were very encouraging for the future with good performances by some first time international athletes. The report was noted FINA World Championships, Shanghai Synchronised Swimming - The report and detailed statistical analysis was put before the Board for discussion. It was noted that the FINA World Championships had been a major benchmark event for Synchronised Swimming and all UK targets had been achieved. Congratulations were extended to the NPD and the team on their achievements and their continued improvement. The report was noted Diving The DoWCO reported that the standard had been extremely high in Shanghai with China dominating. Whilst British athletes exceeded their UK Sport targets in terms of finals it was noted that they had not achieved their medal target. The Board were concerned at this and emphasised how important it is that we ensure everyone is focussed for London The DoWCO reported on the Diving Conference he had attended which had been very positive with a statistical and technical analysis although it had been necessary to reiterate the funding difficulties that would arise if targets were not met next year The Board recognised that there are challenges ahead for Diving and are supportive of the NPD in actions that are required to move the matter forward Swimming Performance Review post Shanghai Following a request to the NPD to carry out a performance review of all aspects of the World Championships a detailed report had been circulated to the Board members. This had been produced following the comprehensive debrief the NPD had undertaken with the staff that had attended the event.

4 The scope of the report is aimed at identifying the fine tuning required to individual and collective team performances to maximise performance outcomes next year. The report makes a number of specific recommendations going forward and these were noted Starts & Turns Statistical Evaluation The report produced by the Sports Science and Sports Medicine Manager had looked at the comparative data from the Commonwealth Games in Delhi and had examined progress using the data from the World Championships in July The Board were advised that a new system called NEMO is now being used which has more effective ways of analysing the various component parts of the turn The DoWCO was instructed to commission a further report after the trials in March 2012 comparing Shanghai with the trials. He was also requested to ensure that appropriate emphasis on this important matter continues and that the skills and science available are used to capacity The Board were encouraged by the report but recognised that there is still some way to go and that this is very much a work in progress. They also emphasised the importance of this being incorporated into Talent programmes across the home countries and the home country representatives were requested that they promote this Men s Water Polo The report was noted and in addition the Board were advised that negotiations were continuing with a consultant to help boost technical knowledge. In addition to this options are being looked at to provide the Head Coach with experience in other European club environments Following completion of the reports from the DoWCO, and the subsequent discussion, the Board confirmed they beleived a full and proper review had taken place and that the necessary action plans were in the place. They looked forward to seeing progress in the future. 67.

Minutes of the meeting held 10 June 2011 Delete Jane Nickerson from those listed as present Min No 52 Finance Delete sentence 2 and 3.

The Board to be updated on progress at the next meeting Electoral College Appointment of The Electoral College had met to discuss the vacancy for an Independent Director which would arise in November Mike Power was eligible for re-election and had made himself available. The Electoral College agreed unanimously to re-apoint Mike Power for a further 4-year term. The College believed this was the best decision due to the proximity of the Olympic Games and Paralympics and as well as ensuring continuity at this critical stage in the quadrennial. It was noted that this was an exceptional circumstance and should not be regarded as precedent and that the preferred method of open recruitment would normally be followed Annual Report The Board were thanked for their feedback on the annual report which was now in the process of going to print.
