It's no secret that we Aussies are champions in the water. We've got spectacular beaches and waterfalls galore — and we absolutely dominate in the pool. Take our recent rendezvous to Birmingham for the 2022 Commonwealth Games. Our national swim team — the Dolphins — returned Down Under with a whopping 65 medals in their luggage. If you're looking to get close to that aquatic action, the upcoming Swimming Australian World Championship Trials is the winter activity for you.
Aussie swimmers will be hitting the lanes at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre from Tuesday, June 13 till Sunday, June 18, battling it out in the pursuit of making it to the World Aquatics World Championships in Fukuoka, Japan in July. Cheer as most of the Dolphins athletes take to the water — you can expect familiar faces like Ariarne Titmas, Mollie O'Callaghan and Kyle Chalmers (to name just a few).
When it comes to sports, we can get pretty patriotic. We fill stadiums, host Olympics watch parties and celebrate hard. Who could forget Ariarne Titmus's coach Dean Boxall celebrating her win in Tokyo 2020 (held in 2021)? So, for a little bit of that energy and to cheer on our mighty Dolphins, grab your gang and nab your tickets to the Swimming Australia World Championship Trials this June.
