RSC COMMITTEE

Introducing Patricia Robbie: a dedicated member of the Raumati Swimming Club. As the current Chair of the club, Patricia brings with her a wealth of experience, as well as having been a Raumati Swimming Club member herself in the past. As a parent to swimmers, she also understands the importance of nurturing a love for the sport from a young age.

Patricia is an unwavering supporter of swimming and is particularly keen on fostering the spirit of the club, where members come together to cheer on progress at all levels. She takes great pride in leading a team of enthusiastic volunteer committee members who share her vision for the club’s growth and success.

I’ve been associated with Raumati since 2010 dating back to the old Raumati pools. My sons, Nic and Alex, have represented the club at regional and national meets with some success.

In my time with RSC I’ve held various roles including official’s coordinator, pool liaison, Treasurer, Chair and now Grants Officer. I’m also involved in Gold Coast Zone as the Treasurer and can be found at most meets officiating poolside as a qualified starter and referee.

My love of swimming means I’m also active in NZ Masters swimming and Paekakariki Surf Lifesaving club. My daytime job is working for 2degrees providing Telecommuncations services to government agencies.

I am an experienced bookkeeper and have worked extensively with finance systems over my working life, so volunteering my time to work as the treasurer for the club was a simple decision. I bring a strong understanding of financial reporting and management and am excited to work alongside the other committee members, to ensure the swimming club thrives.

I have lived in Kapiti for 20 years and have two children attending Kapiti College. My son has been swimming with the Raptors for the last three years.

My wife and I have two children who currently swim for the Raptors Club. They have thoroughly enjoyed being members of RSC and it is great to see their swimming growth with the club. We moved to the Kapiti Coast only two years ago to get away from the Wellington weather. For my job I work as an IT Consultant for Capgemini and enjoy spending my time with my family, golfing and running.

Hello, I am a swim parent and work in Risk Management. I live in Pukerua Bay with my husband and two daughters
I believe swimming is a life skill that all children should have in New Zealand. Growing up in Central Otago my family was into boating on the lake in the summer and now living so close to the coast, being in the water is a key part of my life.
I am so encouraged by the culture of the Raptors swim club and am keen to help continue the amazing work the club does.

I am a busy self employed mum of three living in Paraparaumu Beach. I grew up in Kapiti and was a club swimmer for Raumati back in the 90’s and then moved back here in 2012 to raise a family.
I’ve loved watching my two older boys train and compete for the Raptors and no doubt before long my youngest will swim for the club too!
I am keen to support the club in any way that I can. I believe it is a great space for kids to grow, challenge themselves as much as they are comfortable with and build a healthy lifestyle as they grow.
