A total of 22 Queensland swimmers – just over half the team - were selected for the Beijing Olympics following a dominant performance by Queenslanders at the selection trials, where our team won both the women’s and the men’s divisions. Similarly, six of the 10 coaching positions on the Australian team were claimed by Queensland coaches. Subsequently, Melissa Gorman was added to the team after she qualified for the 10km women’s open water event at the 2008 World Open Water Swimming Championships. The most noteworthy performances, amongst many, by Queenslanders at the trials were delivered by Libby Trickett, Stephanie Rice, and Emily Seebohm. Stephanie’s breathtaking swims in the women’s 200m Individual Medley and 400m Individual Medley both produced world records, while Libby, in winning the women’s 50m Freestyle and 100m Freestyle, became the first woman to officially break 24 seconds and 53 seconds, respectively, in those events. Emily, at just 15 years of age, claimed the world record in the women’s 50m Backstroke. Commonwealth records were also broken by Cate Campbell, Bronte Barratt, Linda Mackenzie, Meagen Nay, Brenton Rickard and Nick D’Arcy. One of Queensland’s great servants of swimming, Julie McGinley, has been selected as the sole Australian to officiate at the open water component of the swimming competition in Beijing. Eight Queensland swimmers were selected on the Paralympic Swim Team, along with coach Glenn Baker. At the trials, Annabelle Williams and Michael Anderson set new multi-disability world records in the women’s 50m Butterfly and men’s 50m Backstroke. 2008 Australian Open Water Swimming Championships The 2008 Australian Open Water Swimming Championships served as the selection trials for the 2008 World Open Water Championships in Seville, Spain. Alexandra Bagley and Melissa Gorman won the women’s 5 km and 10 km events, respectively, while former world champions, Brendan Capell and Josh Santacaterina, produced a nail biting finish in the marathon 25 km men’s event, with Brendan edging out Josh by a mere .28 of a second. These four swimmers were joined by Kate Brookes-Peterson, Brooke Fletcher and coach Don Watson-Brown on the Australian team selected for the World Championships. 2008 World Open Water Swimming Championships As alluded to above, Melissa Gorman’s achievement in finishing ahead of all other Oceania swimmers earned her a berth on the 2008 Olympic team. Top 10 placings at the Championships were achieved by Kate Brookes-Peterson and Brendan Capell. 2008 World Short Course Championships Kylie Palmer was Queensland’s most successful swimmer at the 2008 World Short Course Championships in Manchester. Kylie won the women’s 200m Freestyle and 400m Freestyle and finished runner-up in the women’s 800m Freestyle. She set Commonwealth records in 3 the 400m and 800m events. Nicholas Sprenger was a member of the gold medal winning Australian men’s team in the 4 x 200m Freestyle relay. 2007 INAS-FID World Championships Nerice Holland and Tamleh Wilson represented Australia at the 2007 INAS-FID World Championships in Belgium. INAS-FID is the international federation for sport for people with an intellectual disability. The daughter of SQ Hall of Fame Inductee, Stephen Holland, Nerice won a total of seven gold medals at the Championships, two of which were in individual events. Tamleh’s tally of gold medals was eight, which included three wins in individual events. 2008 Australian Age Championships The 2008 Australian Age Championships showcased the large contingent of promising Queensland youngsters. Once again, Queensland won the W.B. Phillips Trophy for Premier State by a wide margin, making the sequence of wins nine in a row. Pro-Ma Miami topped the club point score, with St Peter’s Western taking out second place. Australian Age individual records were broken by Brittany Elmslie, Emily Seebohm, Maddison Bruce, Zach Featherstone, and Jayden Hadler. Jayden won six events, and Emily, five. In the open water section of the Championships, 10 of the 18 events were won by Queenslanders, with George O’Brien winning gold in two events. In total, 71 gold medals were won by 39 Queensland swimmers in the pool and open water competitions. Delly Carr SAL / Photo courtesy of 2008 Australian Age Champion Club - Pro Ma Miami 2007 Zoggs Queensland Championships The 2007 Zoggs Queensland Championships were bigger and better than ever with the transfer of the relay events to the first day of competition. 6,120 nominations were received for individual events from 1,503 swimmers representing 169 clubs/teams. 4 Jessicah Schipper tied with Christian Sprenger for the Swimmer of the Meet award. Other major award winners were Jayden Hadler (Age Group Swimmer of the Meet), Nerice Holland (SWD Swimmer of the Meet), and Regan Leong (Country Swimmer of the Meet). Brothers won the President’s Trophy as champion club. Athlete and Coach Development Swimming Queensland’s various athlete development squads catered for 430 swimmers across the State. Squad activities included participating in the Sydney leg of the FINA World Cup, the Great Barrier Reef meet in Mackay, the AIS Invitational meet in Canberra, and a dual meet against Victoria in Melbourne. Several clinics and camps were also conducted at various locations around Queensland, including the Gold Coast, Townsville, Yeppoon, Caloundra, Toowoomba, Warwick and Brisbane. Every one of these activities also gave coaches the opportunity to gain vital development experience. Coach education courses were attended by 420 participants, as follows: Green Licence, 297; Bronze Licence, 57; Silver Licence, 39; and SWD, 27. There were also 10 coaches from six different regions in the Coach Mentor Program jointly conducted with the Australian Swim Teachers and Coaches Association (Qld). A special forum for male swimmers was run as the prelude to the Queensland Championships at Chandler. Called Boys2Men, the forum featured Steve Holland, Duncan Armstrong, Brenton Rickard, Peter Wells and Simon Black. Three hundred people attended. Technical Official Development The Mentor Official Program conducted each year during the Queensland Championships provided invaluable pool deck experience to four Technical Officials from Far North Queensland (2), North Queensland and the Gold Coast. Assessor and presenter training delivered to 25 Technical Officials towards the end of the year will be put to good use in 2008/9 when formal assessments of officials will be undertaken in all regions. The annual Referees’ forum was once again well attended, with 29 Referees in attendance. All regions were represented. An awareness and education seminar held at Chandler passed on vital information to 20 club officials. Membership Development Just over 3,000 Queensland junior swimmers qualified for the Australian Junior Excellence Program (JX), which was expanded to include open water swimming and to cater for swimmers with a disability. Special forums for JX qualifiers, and their parents and coaches, were held at Townsville, Rockhampton, Noosa and Brisbane. Presenters at the forums included Jessicah Schipper, Andrew Mewing, Ashley Callus, Bronte Barratt, Kylie Palmer, Alexandra Bagley, and Josh Santacaterina. New initiatives included participation ribbons and a fun book, both featuring SQ’s mascots, Webster and Tilley.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.
