#141 - GB Head Coach Steven Tigg

from The Pullbuoy Podcast · host Pullbuoy

He's been in the role for just over 18 months having taken on the mantle of GB head coach from Bill Furniss, and Steven Tigg is looking forward to a summer of international competition on two fronts, the Commonwealth Games and the European Championships. But as GB head coach he can only really influence one, so how does he navigate that tension and how has he found stepping up from a performance centre into the top job? We spoke to him about following on from the hugely successful era that went before, his thoughts on the current state of the GB programme and what he hopes the team can achieve in Paris this summer as a stepping stone onto the 2028 Olympics.-------------------Episode Artwork: Ian MacNicol/Scottish Swimming-------------------Review, subscribe, share on Apple, Google, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts---------------------Connect on social:- X  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@pullbuoy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- Instagram  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@pullbuoyuk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@pullbuoyuk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
