2025 Sydney Open and UniSport Nationals Race Report

The Sydney Open and UniSport Nationals provided a fantastic opportunity for our swimmers to gain valuable race experience in the lead-up to NSW All Schools and trials. Held at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 May, the event featured a high level of competition, with our athletes racing alongside Olympians and elite swimmers from across the country.

It was also a proud moment to see several Pymble alumni racing for their universities — a reminder that our program not only develops strong athletes but also supports their journey beyond school. While only one alumnus is still training with us, it’s rewarding to see the continued impact of our program.

Well done to our swimmers on their best results:

3rd       200m Backstroke

Jaya Lilienthal (Year 12)

24th     200m Freestyle

Jessica Munk (Alumni)
