"I invited Coach Volkers to South Africa to teach me his coaching methodology, which transformed my program into a world-class level. His support and insight made all the difference, allowing me to produce Commonwealth Games double gold medalists, Olympic A qualifiers, World Champs finalists, and a World Champs silver medalist. Thanks to his teachings, I can now deliver fast swimmers without excessive mileage or extreme training philosophies."
