The Greensboro Aquatic Center has appointed Mike Brady as its new director of aquatics. Brady brings decades of experience in aquatic facility management, competitive swimming, and major-event operations to the leadership role at the nation’s largest indoor aquatic facility.
Announcing the appointment, Oak View Group (OVG) and Greensboro Complex said Brady will begin his new role on November 13.
Brady joins the GAC from Rosen Aquatic & Fitness Center in Orlando, Florida, where he served as associate executive director. His career includes leadership roles in aquatic facility operations, competitive swimming programs, event management, and multi-site recreational operations.
“I’m thrilled to join the Greensboro Aquatic Center and lead a team with a first-class reputation in the aquatics community,” Brady said. “The GAC is a state-of-the-art venue with an impressive track record.”
Brady also highlighted the importance of community partnerships as the facility looks to attract major aquatic competitions.
“Mike is an experienced aquatic facility leader who brings decades of industry experience, competitive swimming expertise, and major-event management to this critical role,” said Scott Johnson, OVG general manager for Greensboro Complex. He said Brady is well positioned to build on the facility’s success and help recruit and host major aquatic competitions at the highest level.
