Eighteen elite athletes from Griffith University have been selected to compete at the 2025 World Aquatic Championships and the World Para Swimming Championships in Singapore, starting on 11 July.
The athletes will compete across four disciplines: artistic swimming, diving, water polo, swimming, and para swimming.
Griffith Sports College Director Naomi McCarthy OAM said the impressive cohort reflected Griffith's ongoing commitment to supporting high-performance sport.
"After an incredible year in 2024 at Paris, Griffith is so excited to be cheering on such a large number of our athletes competing in Singapore at the World Championships.
"Of the 18 competing, it's fantastic to see a mixture of new athletes breaking onto the international stage and of course, many familiar faces.
"We love being able to support so many elite athletes as they start the journey towards 2028."
Griffith Swim Club Head Coach Mel Marshall MBE will attend the championships after being named a team coach for the Australian Dolphins.
"It's a privilege to work with such a talented and driven group of athletes," Ms Marshall said.
"This will be my 11th world championships, and I'm proud to bring experience and strategic insight to support an exceptional team.
"Their dedication to both sport and study is remarkable, and I'm confident they'll do Griffith and their country proud in Singapore."
