Get Bailey to Brisbane!

Rotorua, Bay Of Plenty

Bailey has been selected as part of a New Zealand Para Swimming Team travelling to Brisbane to compete in the Virtus Oceania Asia Games in November 2022. These Games are known globally as one of the largest events for athletes with an intellectual impairment. He needs your help to get him there. Please help him realise his dream to compete for New Zealand.

Bailey is a swimmer with great potential in swimming, as a 16 year old, he holds 2 Open New Zealand Para records (1 long course and 1 short course) and 4 New Zealand Para Age Records (3 short course and 1 long course). Bailey is an ambassador for the sport and is dedicated to achieving the best results possible.

Competing at this Virtus event will expose Bailey to a competitive environment against other Para Swimmers of a similar level. It is also a great reward for Bailey.
