Channel 9 is locking in six days of primetime aquatic action, confirming exclusive broadcast and streaming rights for the 2025 Australian Swimming Trials, airing live and free across Channel 9 and 9Now from Monday, June 9 through Saturday, June 14.

The event, held in Adelaide, sets the stage for Australia’s top-tier swimmers—Olympians, Paralympians, and rising stars—to secure a spot at the World Championships in Singapore this July. Among the big-ticket names in the pool: Mollie O’Callaghan, Kaylee McKeown, Cam McEvoy, and Kyle Chalmers, all looking to punch their ticket to the global stage.
