Luke joined Bilston's swimschool in September 1990 at the age of 4. He swam competitively for the club until the age of 21 and during this time he began teaching on a voluntary basis in the club's swimschool and gained his swimming teaching qualifications. In 2008, Luke spent several months in Australia working 18 hours per week voluntarily for West Coast Swimming Club in Perth which at the time was Australia's No 1 age group club. While here, he took and passed his bronze coaching license. This fantastic experience only served to strengthen his determination to coach when he returned to the UK. Luke continued to coach the development section of Bilston for a further couple of years and was offered the position of Head Coach in August 2010. He is now a qualifed UKCC Level 3 swimming coach. Luke firmly believes that in order to maintain long term success, care and attention must be paid to the whole of the club.
