Meet The Team

John Radford

Chair

John's career began in the consumer electronics industry, progressing from the tools through a management training scheme to senior management level. He later moved into retail distribution, where he remained until retirement.

Within the sport, John has been involved in waterskiing since the early 1970s and has been a member at Kyle WaterSki and Wakeboard Club for most of that time. He has served on the club committee for many years, including a number of years as Chairman. As a participant, coach, volunteer and official, he brings experience across every facet of the sport to his role on the WWS board.

John holds a particular belief in the unique community waterski and wakeboard fosters, and the way the sport maintains its connection between grassroots participants and those at the very top.

Calum Reid

Treasurer

Calum has worked in sports development for a number of years including with Triathlon Scotland where he headed up the development team. He has experience in strategic planning and operational delivery across several areas including clubs, youth and schools, participation growth and safeguarding.

Calum enjoys all kinds of outdoor sports including cycling, running and skiing but his background is primarily sailing where he has been involved as a participant, coach and volunteer throughout his life. Since joining the team Calum has been learning to waterski and wakeboard and is looking forward to improving his skills in both disciplines over the coming years.

Ollie Jessop

Ollie has waterskied for over 20 years. He is the current Scottish Slalom Champion and loves to spend time on the water trying different techniques and helping other skiers when they are having issues. Away from water-sports, Ollie runs two businesses and is married with a young son who at the age of 2 had already been introduced to waterskiing.

Ollie joined the Board to give back to the sport he loves, to help other people progress, and to help create a community between the Scottish clubs and operators.

Karen Cornwell

Karen is a solicitor qualified in both Scotland and England and Wales, and holds Accredited Specialist status in Professional Negligence Law with the Law Society of Scotland. Based at Thorntons Law, her background spans civil and commercial litigation including contract disputes, property litigation, professional negligence and banking litigation. She has also tutored at postgraduate level at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Dundee.

Within the sport, Karen is a Senior Committee Member at Loch Lomond Waterski Club and has been on the water since the age of 15, continuing to ski into her 50s. She embraces all kinds of outdoor sports, regularly enjoying hill walking, horse riding and alpine skiing at home and abroad.

Alan Yeoman

A waterski enthusiast for 15 years, Alan learned to ski behind a Mastercraft ProStar on Loch Lomond before joining Kyle WaterSki and Wakeboard Club, where he has been an active member for a decade.

Before retiring, Alan spent 35 years in education, beginning as a Primary School Teacher before moving into an advisory and CPD delivery role operating across the UK. A competitive swimmer in earlier life, he returned to the sport in his late 40s and continues to compete in long distance events. Outside of sport, Alan volunteers as a Blood Biker, delivering blood, medication and essential equipment on behalf of the NHS.

Alan brings a strong background in child development and education to the board, and values the inclusivity and welcoming culture that defines waterski and wakeboard at both club and national level.

Tegan Brady

Development Officer

Tegan's connection with Town Loch started at 17, when she joined as Front of House and returned each season throughout her time at university. Over those years she progressed from behind the desk to behind the wheel, developing into a coach and driver before stepping into the Development Officer role full-time on graduating.

Now a coach, driver and participant herself, Tegan is passionate about the accessibility of the sport and the community it creates, from the youngest Little Ripples participants through to the more seasoned members of team SAGA. The fact that waterskiing and wakeboarding brings together such a diverse and enthusiastic group of people is, in her words, what makes it special.

Celine Grech

Development Officer

Celine joins WWS with a BA (Hons) in Digital Media from the University of Stirling and a background in adventure tourism, having spent her career immersed in outdoor sports and the communities built around them. Climbing, paddleboarding and surfing were already part of her world before she got on the water for the first time in September 2025.

Since then, she has thrown herself into both waterskiing and wakeboarding, finding the speed, the freedom and the challenge of getting into a cold Scottish loch and trying something new every session. She is a firm convert to the supportive and inclusive culture that defines the sport at every level.
