Peter Regan, Konfidence’s Director, who attended last year’s awards, said: “We are truly honoured to be the official sponsors of STA’s Aquatic Excellence Awards once again this year. We have enjoyed a long partnership with STA, over many years, and by sponsoring these awards, we can continue to support their charity objectives and play a part in recognising all the people who have made a difference in grassroots swimming over the last 12 months. We thoroughly enjoyed celebrating all the finalists and winner’s achievements at last year’s awards ceremony, and as a team, we are looking forward to doing it all over again this year.”

Dave Candler, STA’s CEO, said: “We are delighted to have our long-standing partner Konfidence on board as the headline sponsor for our aquatic excellence awards again this year, and with their support, we look forward to showcasing all that is great about our industry at this year’s national conference in October.”

STA’s ‘STAr’ awards are open to all UK and international learn-to-swim / training providers, and categories range from STAr Swimming Teacher of the Year to STAr Swim School of the Year – and entries will open on the 1st of June via the STA Website.

The presentation evening will then take place during an informal ceremony on Friday 11th October at STA’s national conference at the Radisson Blu Hotel located at East Midlands Airport in Derby.
