Oakville Aquatic Club

The club has approximately 600 swimmers at all levels, ranging from learn-to-swim level to adult level.

We were called upon by the club’s Board of Directors to cover a nine-month paternity leave for its Business Manager from 2019-20. To assist OAK bridge this temporary staffing gap, we provided expert business management skills to not only manage the Business Manager role, but also help the club through a number of challenging situations, ranging from the departure of its long-term Head Coach, to the fall-out from the Covid-19 global public health crisis in the spring of 2020.

“We really couldn’t have managed through things as we did without the expertise that Capitis Consulting provided to us during the year of transition and uncertainty that we have endured. The knowledge that Capitis Consulting brings through having worked with so many different clubs, in different sports, and different communities and markets greatly aided our decision-making as a Board, some of which was difficult to undertake. We are delighted to look to Capitis Consulting as a dependable consulting partner that we can call on for a wide range of support services into the future.”
