The French-themed evening, in a nod to the upcoming Paris Games, attracted almost 300 people at the 2032 Olympic city\u2019s Convention Centre including Tokyo golden girls Emma McKeon<\/strong>, Kaylee McKeown<\/strong>\u00a0and Ariarne Titmus<\/strong>, Olympic Champion breaststroker extraordinaire\u00a0Zac Stubblety-Cook\u00a0<\/strong>and legend\u00a0Dawn Fraser.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was a celebration in the swimming capital not just for the athletes and their coaches, but also their friends, families and loved ones \u2013 a special occasion hosted by Hancock\u2019s Executive Chairman\u00a0Gina Rinehart<\/strong>\u00a0and delivered by Swimming Queensland and the Australian Swimmers Association.<\/p>\n

A guest list that also included Australian Olympic Committee boss\u00a0Ian Chesterman\u00a0<\/strong>and the Swimming Queensland Board, who joined in celebrating the Dolphins successes throughout 2022, looking back over their Tokyo triumphs and forward to the excitement of the Paris campaign for 2024.<\/p>\n

And Swimming World<\/em> were given exclusive access to the evening on the eve of the 2022-23 Summer season prepares to get under way Down Under with the Fina World Short Course Championships in Melbourne and the Queensland State Championships kicking things off in a jam-packed December.<\/p>\n

Stubblety-Cook \u2013 the Olympic, World and Commonwealth Games champion and world record holder for 200m breaststroke was awarded the coveted Swimmers Swimmer \u2013 voted on by his peers \u2013 and celebrating not only his stunning career achievements but the impact he has had on the Dolphins teams.<\/p>\n

Patron\u2019s\u00a0Awards\u00a0were also presented to Australia\u2019s most prolific Olympic and Commonwealth Games gold medal winner in McKeon and two-time Paralympian, Para World Champion and Commonwealth Games gold medallist and world record holder\u00a0Katja Dedekind.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

McKeon won a stunning four gold medals in Tokyo followed by six more gold in Birmingham\u00a0 – rocketing the Gold Coaster who grew up in her family\u2019s pool in the Illawarra in NSW \u2013 into swimming\u2019s stratosphere as Australia\u2019s most successful Olympic and Commonwealth Games athlete ever.<\/p>\n

South African-born visually impaired Dedekind, formerly of Brisbane and now on the Sunshine Coast, opened the Austral, ian team\u2019s gold medal haul in Birmingham with the only individual world record in the Commonwealth Games pool in the S13 50m freestyle.<\/p>\n

Swimming Queensland\u2019s\u00a0Awards\u00a0organiser and former world champion herself,\u00a0Jade Edmistone\u00a0<\/strong>said the night was an opportunity for Mrs Rinehart \u201cto gift all of the Tokyo Para and Olympic athletes for their special achievement as well as award the 2022 Swimmers\u2019 Swimmer and Patron Awards for the Para and Olympic Programs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cAnd it was also the occasion for the athletes to thank Mrs Rinehart with their own special video messages and a gift of a framed signed shirt.<\/p>\n

\u201cSwimming Queensland is excited to be delivering the Patron\u2019s\u00a0Awards\u00a0for the next two years as we head into Paris and celebrate post Paris, hence the theme this year had a\u00a0touch\u00a0of French Glamour.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hancock Prospecting\u00a0CEO\u00a0Garry\u00a0Korte<\/strong>\u00a0addressed the night of nights on behalf of his Executive Chairman saying:<\/p>\n

\u201cYou are all such terrific role models and not only to young Australians, with your dedication, self-discipline, your\u00a0teamship, your world class efforts and the patriotism you display when\u00a0you proudly represent\u00a0our country.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike each of you, it touches me (Mrs Rinehart) deep down when you achieve the podium after so much work, and there is our anthem and flag to celebrate your achievement as outstanding Australians.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very disappointed that I cannot be in two places at once, to celebrate our outstanding Aussie swimmers, especially so after the Olympics and with such fantastic efforts at the Commonwealth Games.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith 25 gold medals, 20 silver and 20 bronze in Birmingham, our team showed that saying is true: \u2018All that glitters is gold, silver and bronze.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd to Emma McKeon, such incredible performances in Birmingham. You\u2019ve made people all over Australia proud.<\/p>\n

\u201cSwimmers, I hope you all know that for many years now, outside of your families, I\u2019ve been one of your most loyal supporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cI admire your desire to do well, to work hard to represent our country to the best of your ability, your perseverance, as I\u2019ve said before, these are all characteristics that will serve you well for your lives after swimming.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen then Prince Charles, now King Charles III, was delivering Queen Elizabeth\u2019s opening\u00a0message\u00a0at the Birmingham Games, there was a comment I especially enjoyed.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said to our Aussie team: \u201cYou\u2019re the team that the others are terrified of! \u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Olympics and the Birmingham Games were exciting times for the many Aussies glued to TVs and cheering you on from across Australia, lifting our\u00a0Covid-affected spirits.\u201d<\/p>\n

Triple Olympian and a member of the Tokyo Leadership Team Mitch Larkin provided this insight into the benefits of the Hancock Prospecting support saying Mrs Rinehart had saved careers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know a number of the swimmers because of the funding were able to focus solely on getting the job done in the water and becoming the best in the world basically,\u201d said Larkin.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe saved careers and someone like Tokyo silver medallist Jack McLaughlin<\/strong> stayed in the sport a lot longer because of Mrs Rinehart and as a result he came away with that silver medal in the 400m freestyle from the Tokyo Games.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI had also spoken to Rio Olympian Grant Irvine a couple of years earlier and ultimately he retired looking to make that next step in his life and taking up full time work.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe wanted to start saving for a house and now that Mrs Rinehart has come in and supported us it has allowed swimmers to stay in the sports longer able to retire with some savings and something to start with when they decide to begin the next phase of their life….\u201d<\/p>\n

The evening was a huge success, with international group\u00a0The\u00a0London Essentials returning to \u00a0perform throughout the evening so guests could dance the night away, serving up their own unique performances as they sang and played their way around the room.<\/p>\n
