Tom Goldney, Watersports Manager
Tom is one of the longest serving members of Hardwick Parks, having grown up at the club from the tender age of two! Over the years he has excelled in all areas of watersports disciplines and he now spends his time passing on his essential knowledge to all at Hardwick Watersports.
Over the last 20 years Tom has been heavily involved in the snowsports industry, starting off as an instructor before going on to become a performance ski coach, and is now training people to become instructors.
Tom worked for the elite Warren Smith Ski Academy, where his teaching skills – combined with the numerous courses he has undertaken over the 20 years has certainly enabled him to get the very best out of his learners – both on snow and in the water.

He is a fantastic coach for all ages and abilities and looks forward to welcoming you to Hardwick Watersports.
