    The flame lit by Sydney 2000 continues to leave a lasting legacy for swimming in Australia and NSW. In 22 years, the shining passion of the Mighty Blues hasn’t dulled – it’s diversified. Today members of the swimming community in NSW are part of an expansive network of 350 clubs and nearly 30,000 members, all working towards their own version of swimming success.

    Today we launch the Swimming NSW Strategic Plan that sets out this path for the next 10 years as we work towards Brisbane 2032. The journey starts here and now.
