Adam Lloyd was a member of ARI NSW and was a Director of International Quadratics Australia (IQ). Adam sadly passed away in March 2021.

IQ was established in 1976 and merged with Pierce Pool Supplies in 2008 bringing two commercial entities synonymous with aquatics together. Adam Lloyd and his father David were always avid supporters of ARI NSW for many years dating back to the late 1990s.

In 2010, Adam Lloyd joined the ARI committee as the Commercial Representative, which was a new position on the committee at the time. In this role, Adam became the voice of the aquatic trade on the committee. He worked tirelessly to improve the relationship between the committee, its members and the industry, and amongst all his peers.

Adam Lloyd's achievements included:

• Member of ARI NSW.

In recognition of Adam Lloyd's passion, dedication and support of ARI NSW and the aquatic and leisure industry as a whole, the Adam Lloyd Memorial Spirit Award has been established.
