Junior Metropolitan Championships 

What an outstanding weekend of racing for our Pymble swimmers! Ten of our athletes represented the College at the NSW Junior Metropolitan Championships at Sydney Olympic Park, delivering an inspiring display of determination, skill and team spirit.  

Across the meet, our girls produced fantastic swims, celebrated numerous personal bests, and showed true Pymble pride on the big stage.  

We would like to extend a special congratulations to our Top 10 finalists, whose standout performances placed them among the best in NSW. Their hard work and commitment continue to make our squad proud.  

Top 10 

Leah Ji (Year 3) – 50m Breaststroke 

Kathy Lun (Year 5) – 100m Butterfly 

Olivia Sun (Year 3) – 50m Breaststroke and 50m Butterfly 

Isabella Wang (Year 6) – 100m Butterfly and 100m Breaststroke.  

While not every swimmer made the Top 10, every Pymble girl who competed played an important role in the team’s success. Their courage to step up on the blocks, chase personal bests, and embrace the challenge of championship racing was truly inspiring. Many achieved significant improvements, showed excellent race skills, and demonstrated the resilience and determination we value so highly in our program. Their effort, attitude and team spirit were outstanding, and we are incredibly proud of the way they represented Pymble across the entire weekend. We would like to congratulate them below!  

Alicia Gong (Year 4), Vera Le (Year 4), Rose Wang (Year 5), Genevieve Wong (Year 6), Olivia Yu (Year 5), Yifei Zheng (Year 4), and Mia Xu (Year 4)  

Congratulations to all our Pymble girls on an outstanding NSW Junior Metropolitan Championships, where the Knox Pymble Swim Club proudly finished third overall in the team point score. This fantastic achievement reflects the hard work, dedication and team spirit shown by every swimmer across the weekend.  

We would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our coaches—Jarrod, Stephen, Sara and Rohan—for their guidance, support and tireless commitment throughout the competition. Their leadership played a key role in helping our swimmers perform at their best and enjoy a successful meet.
