The 17 year-old clocked a time of 2:09.90 in the 200m breaststroke final, just 0.27 outside the A qualifying time.<\/p>\n<p>Rising stars Atherton and Wilson will be joined by, Australian Age champions <strong>Kaylee McKeown <\/strong>(USC Spartans), <strong>Elijah Winnington<\/strong>(Bond), <strong>Jack Cartwright <\/strong>(St Peters Western) and <strong>Gemma Cooney <\/strong>(Brisbane Grammar).<\/p>\n<p>Each year the ACGA and Swimming Australia select a NextGEN Squad and provides the identified junior athletes with the opportunity to gain exposure at International competitions and therefore, assist these promising athletes to be selected in future Australian Commonwealth Games teams.<\/p>\n<p>This year the 22 swimmers selected will race at the Junior Pan Pacific Championships and face some of the strongest swimming nations in the world including the USA and Japan.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Australia Performance Pathway Manager <strong>Jamie Salter<\/strong> said the grant will assist these athletes on their journey and development through the swimming ranks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis investment from the ACGA for our junior swimmers is invaluable in supporting our preparations for the Junior Pan Pacs in Hawaii this August,\u201d Salter said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s fantastic that our junior swimmers will now get the opportunity to compete against some of the best youth athletes in the world and gain valuable racing and international competition experience as we get closer to the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games in 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since the NextGEN support was introduced in 2014, athletes such as <strong>Kyle Chalmers<\/strong>, <strong>Tamsin Cook<\/strong> and <strong>Jacob Hansford<\/strong> have been included and subsequently progressed to the Australian Dolphins Swim Team for the 2016 Olympic Games.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Australia would like to recognise and thank the ACGA for the support provided for our Youth Development programs.\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The 2016 NextGEN squad:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Minna Atherton \u2013 Brisbane
