LIWA Aquatics partners with Australasian Leisure Management

The Leisure Industry Association of Western Australia (Aquatics) Inc [LIWA Aquatics] and the publishers of Australasian Leisure Management magazine have entered into a partnership that will see the not-for-profit organisation’s members receive the magazine.

The agreement will see LIWA Aquatics members receive Australasian Leisure Management magazine, six times each year, as a membership benefit.

LIWA Aquatics has been providing support, professional development and networking opportunities to the aquatic recreation industry of Western Australia since 1969.

It has previously published the Aquatic Recreation Australia Journal, but, amid current challenges and changing technology LIWA will now produce a monthly eNewsletter for its members and provide articles and media content to Australasian Leisure Management to publish.

As LIWA Aquatics Executive Officer, Steve Good explains "while the previous Aquatic Recreation Australia Journal has served the aquatics industry well, recent surveys to our members found that a change of how industry news was to be delivered was favoured. To ensure LIWA was able to provide an option to suit most members we are pleased to partner with Australasian Leisure Management so that both a hard print industry magazine and ongoing monthly eNews are going out to all LIWA members on a regular basis.”

Australasian Leisure Management Publisher, Nigel Benton added "having the magazine circulated to LIWA Aquatics members is a significant development for us.

“Covering the aquatic industry - from major metropolitan facilities to small, seasonal pools in regional and country areas - has always been a significant focus for Australasian Leisure Management.

“The aquatic industry has huge economic and social significance in Australia’s fabric and Western Australia has always been a leader in industry best practice, innovation and operations.

“By linking with our magazine and industry information resources, LIWA Aquatics can be confident that their members are getting access to the best industry information, giving the organisation the opportunity to focus on its many other professional and membership activities."

LIWA Aquatics members will receive the latest issue of Australasian Leisure Management magazine in the coming weeks.
