Our regular coaches are: Malcolm Cooper, Jim O’Brien, Dave Rostetter and Toni
Sinnott. Most of our coaches continue swimming both as Masters (adult
swimming) and with regular ocean swims; and a few coaches register and
participate in the USA-S meets. Malcolm (sprint free, back and fly) was
both High-School & NCAA Div I All-Americans (i.e.; finalists at College Div I
Championships). Kevin Drake (distance free, IM and fly) was an NCAA Div I
multiple All-American at UoPacific and Olympic Trials finalist in the 400 IM.
Check out our Summer Swimmer 2006
Letter from Coach Malcolm - and the
condensed version. This still holds true 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and
2011!
- Malcolm Cooper (Head coach
all groups)
-
Malcolm swam all four years at Harvard ('79). Malcolm has been head
coach of Maui Dolphins since 2002, swimming & coaching masters and/or adults for over
25 years, and was twice selected Maui News HS Coach of the Year. He is
an ASCA level 2 coach.
- Jim O'Brien (Doggie Paddlers and
Flippers)
- Jim coaches our youngest swimmers. Jim gets in the water with the
newest swimmers to help them get their face wet, learn to kick and breath
... arguably the most challenging job we have. Jim is not only a
certified coach, he is also a certified lifeguard and WSI instructor who
keeps all the coaches properly certified. He also certifies many of
the personnel on boats around Maui.
- Toni Sinnott (Flippers MWF)
- Toni grew up in Sao Paulo, Brazil. She started swimming as a
teenager, but soon was coaching her swim team. She has coached Maui
Masters for 10 years, and has taught kids swimming as an American Red Cross
Water Safety Instructor in many
places around the world but most recently in Kihei and Sakamoto Pools on Maui. She is
also the Hawaii Masters Swimming Association Registrar.
- Dave Rostetter (Flippers T/Th)
- Dave is a teacher at Maui High. He was a coach for Maui Dolphins
in 2000-2001, then pursued teaching (life sciences specializing in marine
biology) and a masters degree in teaching. He has been a masters coach
since 2002 for Maui Masters Swim Club. He started coaching with Maui
Dolphins again in 2010.
- Kevin Drake (Substitute/Backup
Coach and Meet Support)
- Kevin has been a competitive swimmer
since age 5 in Stockton, CA. He swam with coach Bill Rose of Pacific Aquatic
Club earning High School All-American in swimming and Water Polo. He
swam the 1500 at the 1972 Olympic Trials at the age of 15. He swam
with the UoPacific and was a NCAA Div-I All-American in the 400 IM and
4-years on their nationally ranked water polo team. Kevin was a
finalist in the 1976 Olympic Trials in the 400 IM, a member of the USA
National team, and competed in the 1977 World Student Games for the US in
Bulgaria. Kevin has continued to swim and play water polo with masters
having several #1 rankings and the occasional national and state records.
Kevin moved to Maui
