Breaststroke Superstars Zac Stubblety-Cook And Sam Williamson o Lead All-Star Australian Lineups For New Grand Prix Teams Event<\/strong><\/p>\n

Super star breaststroker Zac Stubblety-Cook<\/strong> has urged Australian swimming fans to get behind the Dolphins on the road to Brisbane 2032 with the unveiling of an exciting Grand Prix Teams event in Melbourne today.<\/p>\n

The Olympic champion and former world record holder and fellow world and newly crowned Commonwealth and Pan Pac champion Sam Williamson<\/strong> were on hand to officially launch swim GP, set down for November 13 and 14, 2026 as the Dolphins strive to build momentum towards Brisbane 2032.<\/p>\n

Stubblety-Cook and Williamson will headline a host of Australian swimming\u2019s biggest names who will feature in the all-star Swim GP event that will pit the country\u2019s fastest swimmers against each other in a teams\u2019 format across a gala weekend at Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (MSAC) with Stubblety-Cook giving the meet his seal of approval.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s great that the sport is trying new avenues and we\u2019re excited to see what this means for swimming leading into 2032, it\u2019s important to get a home crowd invested in the sport of swimming,\u201d said Queensland born and bred Stubblety-Cook, now firmly entrenched at Victoria\u2019s premier club, Nunawading.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd fandom is central to this. We also want to be part of something that creates FOMO and heated rivalries. We have some of the best swimmers in the world \u2013 and I don\u2019t think the Australian public fully realise just how good this Dolphins team is.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want them to join us on the journey to 2032 \u2026 and this is just the start.<\/p>\n

The format is designed to thrust the sport into the entertainment space as much as to sharpen the swimmers\u2019 competitive instincts and comes on the back of last year\u2019s successful Australia v The World meet in Brisbane.<\/p>\n

Swim GP will feature four teams of 20 Dolphins who will go head-to-head in short, high-energy sessions built for maximum excitement and nail-biting finishes to be televised live on the Olympic broadcaster Channel 9.<\/p>\n

Each team line-up features a mix of the Dolphins biggest stars and rising talent from across the Olympic and Paralympic program, led by elite coaches Dean Boxall, Damian Jones, Mel Marshall<\/strong> and Craig Jackson.
\n<\/strong>
\nWith a home Games just six years away, Swim GP is ground zero for engaging existing and attracting new fans to Australia\u2019s most successful Olympic sport.<\/p>\n

Swimming Australia executives also revealed that Swim GP would become an important part of the calendar for the likes of Olympic gold medallists Stubblety-Cook, Mollie O\u2019Callaghan, Cam McEvoy, Lani Pallister <\/strong>and Paralympic gold medallists Tim Hodge<\/strong> and Lakeisha Patterson<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Swim GP program of events will showcase a range of race formats including Mixed Relays, individual and Para staggered-start races, high-speed Skins races and Mystery Medleys\u00a0\u2013 with bonus points, coaches calls and fan voting all influencing the outcomes.<\/p>\n

The legacy of Swim GP will be felt in 2032 when the Dolphins line up for a home Games with the fever and buoyancy of an engaged fan base that will change the Australian sporting scene.<\/p>\n

The 2026 event is supported by the Victorian Government, who have also committed to supporting the 2028 Australian Short Course Championships, also to be hosted at MSAC.<\/p>\n

Swimming Australia CEO Rob Woodhouse<\/strong> OLY, said Swim GP would be an next exciting step in the planning ahead of 2032 aimed at engaging swimming fans in the theatre and entertainment of the sport.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe saw the support off the back of Australia v The World last year, and we know swimming fans love seeing our athletes compete,\u201d said Woodhouse.<\/p>\n

\u201cBuilding this platform with our partner Channel Nine, we want every household in Australia to know the names of our Dolphins as we lead into 2032 and events like Swim GP allow us to create that platform, for both branding and commercial success.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thankful for the support of the Victorian Government to deliver this event for the first time, and excited to bring this to swimming and sports fans in Melbourne.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
