4 of our kiddos had the ultimate experience — chatting and listening to an absolute legend Elijah Winnington! Pictured here sitting right behind Elijah, they soaked up every moment at Open Nationals, learning from the best of the best. Thanks to the incredible Pho3nix Foundation JX program from Swimming Australia, our young swimmers aren’t just meeting their idols… they’re chatting with them, learning from them, and dreaming even bigger than before. What a day!
Imagine getting tips from a defending champ before he heads off to the Commonwealth Games! 🤩
The 400m freestyle champion from Birmingham 2022 Elijah Winnington caught up with the next wave of aspiring Dolphins at the Pho3nix JX Clinic on the Gold Coast during the Australian Open.
With Glasgow just around the corner, we want to wish Elijah and the entire Australian Dolphins Swim Team the absolute best of luck 💪🐬
