What a week it’s been at the Australian Age Championships on the Gold Coast! 🇦🇺

A huge congratulations to Jobe and Emmy for representing Unley with pride, determination and team spirit across the week.

Jobe had an outstanding first nationals, achieving personal best times in every single event he raced – a fantastic reward for all the hard work, consistency and commitment he’s put in this season. A massive effort and something to be incredibly proud of!

Emmy also delivered a strong performance at her second national championships, continuing to build on her experience at this level. Each race was another step forward, showing great resilience, growth and confidence against some of the best swimmers in the country.

These championships are about more than just results – they’re about learning, growing and gaining valuable experience on the national stage, and both swimmers have done exactly that.

We’re incredibly proud of you both and can’t wait to see what’s ahead! 🙌🏼

What a weekend for our three Unley legends who took on the QLD Open Water State Champs against some seriously tough competition — and absolutely smashed it! 👏

🏊‍♀️ Emmy Findlay (14 yrs, Female 5km Event) – Finished 4th in a strong field! Such a fantastic result and a great reward for all your hard work.

💪 Sutton Miller (15 yrs, Female 7.5km Event) – Tackled her first ever 7.5km and came 5th overall in her age group (and 3rd among Aussie swimmers with a few internationals in the mix!). What an amazing debut effort!
