The most enthusiastic coach to grace the pool.

Birmingham, meet Dean Boxall.

The Australian swimming mastermind captivated the world with his poolside antics in Tokyo and has brought that same energy to the Commonwealth Games.

Boxall rode every stroke on the sidelines as Ariane Titmus roared home to lead Australia to a world record in the women’s 4x200m freestyle final.

It was a joint effort with Titmus competing alongside Madi Wilson, Mollie O’Callaghan and Kiah Melverton to bring home gold.

There were hugs, fist pumps and screaming when Titmus stopped the clock in 7:39.29secs, more than 12 seconds ahead of silver medallists Canada.

I had Dean tell me the split to make the world record with his fingers. So I knew when he told me that she had to go 154.1, so I just wanted her to get in and have fun and really just enjoy the experience of anchoring such an amazing team.
