Chrissie Robinson

Chair

Chrissie has been involved in swimming since 1987 when her eldest two children joined a swimming club.  

Since that time Chrissie has held a number of roles at both Club and County level before the Region.

Chrissie has served as a Club Secretary and Chair.

She also qualified as an official at this time for both pool and open water. Chrissie officiated at venues all over the Country and continued with this until 2009.   

Following on from Club duties Chrissie became heavily involved in her County Association, including holding the positions of Secretary and President. 

Once news leaked out about her accounting prowess in her ‘day job, Chrissie was snapped up by the Regional Management Board as Finance Manager in 2008.

The day to day financial responsibilities have been superseded in 2020 with taking on the mantle of Regional Chair and guiding the Region through the incorporation process at the end of her first year in office.

However, if you ask Chrissie how she managed to assume such responsibility within the sport her response will be …. ‘I blame the children’!!!
