Joe Willis
Paul is a Sports Diver joining TSAC in March 2024. Paul has previously served on the committee as Social Secretary (2017 – 2019) and was instrumental in bringing club members together on many a club social event. He doesn’t get down hearted if an event isn’t filled and always has a smile on his face.
Within seconds of accepting the role, Paul started formulating social events and with a bit of Luck, COVID will allow him to implement a fair few get-together’s… We all look forward to receiving the many invites.

Lisa Keen
Lisa is a newly qualified Ocean Diver joining TSAC in June 2021. Lisa has demonstrated a great deal of dedication in securing her OD Qualification and enjoys a good challenge.
Being a marketing guru, Lisa is obviously a well organised person, so is ideal for this role. Hopefully this will be the first of a fair few years in the committee for Lisa.
