Australian Championships Move To Melbourne 14th March, 2005

Swimming Australia has announced that Melbourne will host the Australian Swimming Championships in 2006 & 2007.

Sydney has hosted the Championships for the past three years but next year they will move to The Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre which will also be used for the 2006 Commonwealth Games and the 2007 World Championships.
Holding the Australian Championships, which also double as the selection trials for the events, at the centre will give the Australian team the best possible preparation for the meets.

With the Championships moving to Melbourne, this year's Championships are your last chance for at least a couple of years to see the Australian Swimmers in person. Finals tickets for the meet are still available through Ticketek and can be purchased via http://www.ticketek.com.au/ or at the door. Ticket prices range from $20.00 - $10.00 for adults and $10.00 - $5.00 for concessions.

However Swimming Australia will still have events in Sydney and they are in negotiations over the possibility of running one of the World Cup events in Sydney in November this year.
