The Australian Youth National Artistic Swimming Team is honoured to represent Australia at the 2025 World Aquatic Youth World Championships in Athens.
This dedicated team of young athletes has been training together for the past two years, developing not only world-class routines but also a deep bond built on trust, resilience, and shared ambition. Drawn from across the country, they bring an exciting combination of technical skill, creativity, and unmistakable Aussie energy to the world stage.
During the school holidays, the team has come together for intensive high-performance training camps at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra. These camps have been crucial in refining their artistry and athleticism while strengthening the connection and team spirit that shines through in every performance.
Known for their vibrant personalities, positive attitude, and tireless work ethic, this group embodies the future of Australian artistic swimming. They are proud to wear the green and gold and to showcase their talent, unity, and love for the sport on the international stage.
We wish them the very best as they take on the world with determination, grace, and a lot of sparkle!
