  • March 28, 2025

Swimpro, Nigeria’s leading platform connecting learners with certified swimming instructors, is proud to announce its latest milestone: a strategic consulting partnership with the John Randle Centre for Yorùbá Culture & History in Lagos. This collaboration underscores Swimpro’s commitment to advancing swimming education, operational excellence, and cultural integration in aquatic programs across Nigeria.

A Vision for Sustainable Aquatic Management

The John Randle Centre for Yorùbá Culture & History, a premier heritage and recreation hub, aims to provide not just historical insights but also world-class leisure and sporting facilities. With swimming being an essential life skill and a growing sport in Nigeria, the Centre recognizes the need for expert guidance in setting up and managing its aquatic operations. This is where Swimpro’s expertise comes in.

As a brand that has pioneered structured swimming education and training in Nigeria, Swimpro brings invaluable knowledge in the following areas:

  • Operational Management: Designing and implementing efficient workflows for pool operations, ensuring safety, hygiene, and service excellence.
  • Staff Training & Capacity Building: Equipping trainers, lifeguards, and facility managers with best practices in swimming instruction, risk management, and customer engagement.
  • Community Engagement & Program Development: Creating tailored swimming programs that promote water safety, fitness, and competitive training while aligning with the cultural heritage of the Centre.

Why This Partnership Matters

The inclusion of a well-managed aquatic facility within the John Randle Centre aligns with Swimpro’s broader vision of making swimming accessible, safe, and professionally structured across Nigeria. Beyond providing consultation, Swimpro will also spearhead training initiatives aimed at:

  • Increasing local participation in swimming, particularly among youth and underrepresented communities.
  • Enhancing employment opportunities by developing a new wave of trained aquatic professionals.
  • Promoting swimming as both a recreational and competitive sport within Lagos and beyond.

Shaping the Future of Swimming in Nigeria

This collaboration between Swimpro and the John Randle Centre for Yorùbá Culture & History is a significant step toward redefining how swimming facilities are managed in Nigeria. By merging cultural heritage with modern aquatic excellence, the project sets a precedent for integrating professional sports management into cultural institutions.

At Swimpro, we believe that swimming is more than just a skill—it’s a gateway to a healthier lifestyle, water safety awareness, and even professional athletic opportunities. This initiative strengthens our commitment to developing world-class swimming programs and fostering a culture of aquatic excellence in Nigeria.
