NOTES:

* 2004 Athens Paralympic coaches may appear out of chronological order; the Paralympic Games was added to ASCTA’s list of international competitions by the Board of ASCTA in 2009. The Australian Paralympic Committee mainstreamed its ‘swimmers with a disability’ program with Swimming Australia’s program as from October 2003; prior to 2004 coaching appointments were made by the Australian Paralympic Committee.

** These coaches first represented Australia at the 2004 Paralympic Games and then subsequently on other teams.

*** FINA World Short Course Championships and World Open Water Championships were added to ASCTA’s list of international competitions by the Board of ASCTA in 2011. Hence Rings 90 – 98 were awarded to Coaches who first Australian Open Team was at such at Meet and they had not previously been award a Ring from another Team.
