Coach Christy resigns, Billie Farrar to become Head Coach

Long-time Oregon Community Swim Club Head Coach Christy Breiby has resigned from her position and will be stepping down within the next couple of weeks. As most of you probably know, Christy has two small children and finding time for both her head coaching duties and her family has grown increasingly difficult.

We are pleased to announce that Billie Farrar, assistant Head Coach and Group Two Main Coach, has agreed to accept the position of Head Coach. Billie brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the position and we’re looking forward to having her as our next Head Coach.

Christy has been Head Coach for the last five and one-half years, during which time the club has grown increasingly competitive in meets, has done well at Conference meets, and has regularly sent a number of swimmers to the State Meet each year. Also, the club has been very successful in its role as a “feeder program” to the Oregon High School girls’ swim team, graduating a steady stream of trained, talented athletes to the high school girls program.

The club is grateful for Christy’s efforts over the years and wishes her all of the best in the future.

If you have any questions, please contact Dave Moran, OCSC President.
