Star swimmer Higgins selected for regional development program

PORT Macquarie Swimming Club star Chloe Higgins has been selected to the Swimming NSW Regional Development Program.

Chloe, who is based in Camden Haven, is one of just two athletes from the Swimming North Coast region selected, alongside Casino’s Jacqueline Button.

“Chloe is one of 20 young NSW Country club swimmers selected in the NSW Regional Development Squad for 2025,” a spokesperson for the Port Macquarie Swimming Club said.

“Chloe will head to Canberra in September for a training camp at the Institute of Sport, a well-deserved opportunity after the amazing year that she has had.”

The program was developed after Swimming NSW identified the high number of talented swimmers and coaches residing in regional areas.

The objective of the program is to impart skills and techniques for improved performance that participants can take back to their home program.

Swimmers were selected through a talent identification process undertaken by the Swimming NSW Regional Coaching Director.
