Tamsin Cook selected as part of the Australian Dolphins Leadership group

Dual Olympic gold medallist Tamsin Cook has been selected as part of the Athlete Leadership Group set to guide the Australian Dolphins through to the Paris Olympic Games.

Cook is joined by Madison Wilson, Zac Stubblety-Cook, Jenna Strauch and Bailey Armstrong in the five-member group.

“I’m incredibly honoured to be representing my peers as an Athlete Leader for the Paris 2024 Olympic cycle,” said Cook who is targeting her third Olympic Games, having returned to the sport in the second half of 2020 following a two year break.

“The Leadership Group has always strived to create an environment where every Dolphin feels supported, valued, and prepared to perform at their absolute best and I am excited to continue this legacy with the next generation.”

Swimming Australia High Performance Director, Tamara Sheppard, congratulated the group and welcomed their appointment.

“It is always a privilege to be appointed a Leader of your peers and this group of Athlete Leaders recognise and are excited by both the opportunities and challenges presented by this role.

“Our Tokyo Leaders have left a tremendous legacy and we thank them for their contribution and their ongoing support of our new Paris Leadership Group.”

Australian Dolphins Head Coach, Rohan Taylor said, “Making each other better is at the core of everything we do as a team and our new Leaders will ensure that ethos remains central to the Dolphins through the unique qualities they each bring to the role.

“Our previous Leaders worked closely with the entire athlete cohort in the evolvement of our culture in recent years and I know this new group will relish the responsibility of continuing that legacy to create a sustainable environment for all who have the privilege of representing the Dolphins.”
