Who/What sparked your interest in competitive swimming?

My older sister loved swimming and we started attending & racing at our local swimming a club on Friday nights. I started competing at swimming club at 6 years old.

How often do you train and does this increase in the lead up to an event such as the NSW All Schools Swimming Competition?

As a swimmer we don’t really have an off season. I consistently train throughout the year; five mornings, two afternoons plus two gym sessions per week.

Do you have any advice for other students wishing to pursue swimming both competitively and recreationally?

For anyone interested in swimming join your local swimming club. It’s been such a fun experience and I’ve made so many friends through swimming. After swimming club you can progress to competing at area meets, State and National championships.
