⭐️ 2026 NSW PSSA Swimming Championships ⭐️

Big congratulations to our junior swimmers who competed at the NSWPSSA Swimming Championships
Belle Nichols, Pippa Wark, Millie Lyle, Tabitha Shearer, Elizabeth Harris, Archer Cannon and Cooper Cannon.

A big stage and a massive achievement to reach this level. Strong racing, PBs, new experiences and memories that stick.

Special mention to Tabitha for helping Burren bring home gold in the Peter Dobson Relay. A proud moment 🏆

That wraps up our long course season for juniors and what a season it has been. From first 25m at training, to first carnivals, through to zone, Dio, Polding, State and Nationals, it has been great to see the progress right across the group!!

The attitude, work and commitment from athletes and families has been there the whole way and it has been a pleasure supporting swimmers from our local community and across the North West.

Special shoutout to Cooper Galton and Courtney Bush competing today at the NSW CHS Swimming Championships. Go well and have fun! 🏊‍♀️ 🏊‍♂️

Good luck to our very own Josh Spinks who hits the pool today at the Australian National Swimming Championships on the Gold Coast!

Josh will be racing the 200m IM today, followed by the 200m Backstroke tomorrow which is an incredible achievement at this level.

We’re so proud to see you representing our buddy club, Scully Park Swimming Club, and taking on the very best swimmers in the country (and maybe a few future Olympians 👀).

Enjoy every moment, soak up the experience, and race hard, the whole Gunnedah Tri Club is behind you! 💙🏊‍♂️

🇦🇺 AUSTRALIAN AGE SPOTLIGHT — Josh Spinks 🇦🇺

The Australian Age Championships are underway, and this week we’ll see local Gunnedah swimmer Josh Spinks make his National debut. We asked him a few quick questions ahead of racing.

1. First time heading to Australian Age Championships, how does it feel? 🇦🇺
Feels exciting, a little bit of nerves but definitely excited as it’s my first Nationals.

2. What events are you competing in? 🏊‍♂️
200 IM and 200 Backstroke.

3. What are you most excited for at Nationals? 😄
Seeing my mates I haven’t seen in a long time and racing in the Gold Coast pool.

4. Favourite event or race distance? 🔥
200 IM or 400 freestyle.

5. What’s one thing you’ve worked hardest on this season? 💪
Definitely the 200 IM. I think I’ve dropped about 11 or 12 seconds this season.

6. Tough days happen, what keeps you going? 🎯
The goal of Nationals has kept me going and working hard.

7. Favourite pre-race hype song? 🎧
Headlines by Drake.

8. What’s something John always says or your go-to race advice? 😄
Go hard or go get ’em.

9. Best post-race feed? 🍔
Steak and mashed potato.

Best of luck Josh, we’ll all be cheering you on! You can catch Josh racing this Thursday and Friday, live on 9Now.

2026 Sprint Distance Australian Championships – Gold Coast 🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Our Age Group girls absolutely delivered in their final race of the season 💥

🔥Donna Hickey 🐐 led right from the start and completely dominated, taking out 🥇 in the 65–69 Age Group.
She may have been heard at the finish line saying, “I’m too old for this sh #”* but we disagree. This is exactly why she’s the GOAT.

🔥 Kelly Watson (45–49) was 2nd out of the water, got caught on the bike, but turned it on in the run to charge home for 🥉. Another consistent race from Kelly, proving she is well and truly at the top of her field. Coach says it’s just the little things now… like getting her feet into her shoes on the bike.

🔥 Sarah Stewart (35–39) came out 3rd in the swim and finished 5th overall, but 3rd in the Australian Championship event 🥉. A massive 4:40 improvement on the bike from last year 🚴‍♀️ A new bike and consistent training are paying off 💪

🔥 Emmy Barr (20–24) raced in her first ever Australian Championships and placed an incredible 12th overall which is a huge achievement in her debut season 👏👏
Time to send up a tri suit for Emmy to proudly rep our town next season — big things coming, no doubt! 💥

⏱️ Another Aussie title feather in your cap, John Hickey 👏
Thank you for everything you do. The proof is in the results.

So proud of this group tough, consistent and doing amazing things in our sport from a small little country town. ❤️💙

After watching everyone else in his family compete, Harry finally got to do a race, with only one goal in mind… beating his Dad! 👏

Just look at the number of kids at the Pho3nix Triathlon and 1km fun run on the Gold Coast.

Such a great atmosphere and amazing to see this many kids getting involved in our sport 🙌
