I\u2019m very grateful to be on this journey…my fifth World Championships Team and to be supported by the very best (people),\u201d said Gubecka, referring to her coaches, family, swim club and sponsors.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe team selected this year is a great mix of veterans and rookies. I am excited to be part of this team and I truly believe we will have a very successful campaign.\u201d<\/p>\n
Johnson, an 800 and 1500m specialist, has extended her career prospects, like so many successful marathon swimmers who combine pool and open water \u2013 winning the five kilometre and 10km National titles \u2013 as she also plots her pathway to Paris 2024.<\/p>\n
Swimming Australia\u2019s High General manager of Performance Support\u00a0Greg Shaw<\/strong> has praised Gubecka for hanging in there.<\/p>\n\u201cWell done to Chelsea who really took Moesha Johnson out in the 10km National Championships and (also) pushed her out of her comfort zone in the first two laps (to finish second) and secure selection.<\/p>\n
\u201cChelsea has not had a lot of opportunity over the past two years when she lost open water from an opportunity perspective after Kareena Lee qualified for the Olympics in 2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s almost three years since she raced internationally in open water and she her and coach Rob Van der Zant have done a great job.<\/p>\n
\u201cChelsea has kept her head down and kept moving forward and it\u2019s great to see her revive herself and get an opportunity to demonstrate what she is capable on the international stage again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shaw\u00a0knows he also has a live one in Johnson saying that Moesha had put her hands up at Queensland States last year saying \u2018I want a piece of t<\/p>\n

his.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cShe is in good hands with Michael Bohl and Janelle Elford (one of four coaches named on the team) and of course Michael coached multiple open water champions like,\u00a0Brendan Capell, Josh Santacaterina<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Trudee Stafford (Hutchinson).<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cHe was their coach when they were putting down world championships in 25km; Bohly is an experienced coach and has had major influence across a broad spectrum of events and distances.<\/p>\n
\u201cMoesha is in the Swimming Australia HUB program at Southport and it\u2019s good to see her excited about opportunities to challenge herself against seasoned competitors.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sloman<\/strong>, who again asserted his authority as the man to beat on a competitive domestic scene \u2013 added another 10km National crown in 1:49.58.22 with Armstrong (1:50.05.95) and Lee (1:50.06.83) to insure he was on the team again.<\/p>\nSloman has been a dominant force in Australia\u2019s open water ranks alongside Edwards and Armstrong \u2013 who all fought hard for Australia\u2019s only Olympic berth last year.<\/p>\n
And it was obvious that 25-year-old Sloman, 23-year-old Armstrong and 20-year-old Lee\u00a0 also have their sights on 2024 in a big way.<\/p>\n
Sloman also added the 5km title to his long list of National crowns, winning the 5km in 53:58.69 and defeating Lee(54:13.35) who reversed the 10km minor placings in a nail-biter from Armstrong (54:13.46) \u2013 with the top two qualifying for a swim in Budapest.<\/p>\n
\u201cNick\u2019s certainly accomplished domestically and is starting to get some good international results as well and the Olympic selection is the big one for him and he and (coach) John Rodgers are plotting and planning for 2024 and that\u2019s exciting to see what they are capable of as a unit.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Noosa group is really starting to earn that open water respect from a world perspective and now with the emergence of Finella Gibbs-Beal<\/strong> who won the 18 years 5 (50.30.79) and 10km (2:03.58) double it\u2019s a very exciting group indeed.<\/p>\n\u201cYou know you are doing stuff under one of the best endurance swim coaches Australia has ever produced in JR.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rodgers,<\/strong> the reigning Australian Open Water Coach of the Year, will also provide support to the team of\u00a0coaches and athletes as a non-travelling Team Coach.<\/p>\nSwimming Australia\u2019s State Technical Lead WA, Mel Tantrum<\/strong>, has been appointed Head Coach of the\u00a0team and will be supported by Team Coaches Harley Connolly<\/strong> (Belgravia) and\u00a0Van der Zant and Pallister.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

Shaw said the Junior Dolphins team highlighted the richly talented junior pathway in Australian Open Water swimming.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s an honour to represent your country and I am excited to see what this group is capable of delivering when they are provided the opportunity to race internationally,\u201d Shaw said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe look forward to finally seeing what our best junior talent is capable of against strong international representation, given the competition hiatus enforced by COVID.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe chance to travel to Seychelles and race other international competitors is a key development opportunity for these swimmers on their path to the Los Angeles and Brisbane Olympics, and it\u2019s one I\u2019m sure they will relish.\u201d<\/p>\n
