Your donation is supporting Manly Swimming Club
Visit websiteOperating since 1905, Manly Swimming Club is a Northern Beaches sporting institution and an integral part of the sporting development of Manly and its surrounds.
The club needs financial support for its community and athlete development programs. Funds raised will be directed towards training and competition costs, as well as equipment such as a touch pad timing system. The club also aims to build on its social, community swim program in addition to its competitive program.
To help with fundraising activity, the club is hosting a gala dinner event on Saturday 11 May 2024 to celebrate the centenary of the 1924 Paris Olympics and the remarkable accomplishments of local Northern Beaches athletes.
Hosted by the club and MC'd by Olympian, Brooke Hansen, proceeds from event ticket sales will help the club to cover costs for the event, and with additional fundraising support, the club aims to achieve its fundraising target of $20,000.
This celebratory gala dinner aims to recognise northern beaches athletes past and present and the influence they have had in creating a sporting pathway for aspiring local athletes. The 1924 games are significant to the Manly Swimming Club as our very own Andrew Boy Charlton secured his inaugural Olympic Gold in the 1500m Freestyle—an achievement that marked the beginning of Australia's enduring dominance in this event.
