The who\u2019s who of Australian swimming will swap their Speedos for a night of glitz and glamour at the 2016 Swimming Australia Gala Dinner in Brisbane next month.<\/p>\n

The night will recognize performance, passion, sportsmanship and dedication, highlighted at every level of the sport from the grass roots participation to the recreational swimmers across the nation and throughout the build up to and during this year\u2019s Olympic and Paralympic Games.<\/p>\n

The sport\u2019s night of nights will be held at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre on Sunday, November 6<\/span>, off the back of the three-day Hancock Prospecting Australian Short Course Swimming Championships.<\/p>\n

The Gala Dinner will see three major awards presented to the Olympic Program, Paralympic Program and Open Water Swimmers of the Year recognised for their achievements in their respective disciplines.<\/p>\n

There will now be no overall \u2018Swimmer of the Year\u2019 as in past years but rather recognition of three winners of the annual award.<\/p>\n

Olympic and Paralympic champions alike will be recognised alongside the coaches, clubs, officials and the prestigious Swimmer\u2019s Swimmer of the Year \u2013 an award voted on by members of the Dolphins squad.<\/p>\n

Amongst other awards will also be the Speedo Golden Moment of the Year presented to an individual or team.<\/p>\n

Swimming Australia CEO Mark Anderson<\/strong> said, \u201cThe Swimming Australia Gala Dinner is one of the most highly anticipated events on the calendar in a swimming season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a chance for swimmers, staff, coaches and invited guests to acknowledge and celebrate the achievements of the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the past, the Swimmer of the Year Awards has recognised the different disciplines individually but also awarded an overall winner.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us it is not necessary to compare our swimmers across the disciplines but rather to celebrate each one equally. As a result we have removed the overall Swimmer of the Year Award and will celebrate our very best Olympic, Paralympic & Open Water Swimmers in their own category.<\/p>\n

\u201cSwimming is one of Australia\u2019s most inclusive sports but we are always striving to do better and we want to continue to ensure our sport remains a leader for inclusive practise.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2016 Swimming Australia Gala Dinner will feature the following awards:
\nSpeedo Golden Moment
\nBrisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre Local Legend of the Year
\nRoger Smith Technical Official of the Year
\nClub of the Year
\nSwimmer\u2019s Swimmer brought to you by Hancock Prospecting
\nAge Group Coach of the Year
\nOpen Water Coach of the Year
\nHancock Prospecting Paralympic Program Coach of the Year
\nHancock Prospecting Olympic Program Coach of the Year
\nAIS Discovery of the Year
\nOpen Water Swimmer of the Year
\nParalympic Program Swimmer of the Year
\nOlympic Program Swimmer of the Year<\/p>\n

The sport of swimming has such a rich history and Dolphins past and present have all helped to make the team what it is today, that\u2019s why the night is also about recognising our 15 recently retired swimmers and their service to the sport and contribution to the team.<\/p>\n

The Swimming Australia Gala Dinner will see red carpet arrivals from 6:30pm open to all media.<\/p>\n
