Keep Kiwi Swimming alive
KIwi Swimming is NZs highest read and engaged with swimming page, updating and commenting on all swimming events when others do not .
Nationwide
Kiwi Swimming has been the only outlet that regularly updates and comments on pinnacle swimming events as results happen. A facebook page, it has the support of our top swimmers and coaches but, like other media, cannot grow and continue without financial support. More than 100,000 read the page during the week of the world swimming champs in Doha 2024, with more than a million viewers doing so in the past three months. .
The Paris Olympics in July was NZ's best chance of an Olympic swimming medal in more than 28 years. Newshub has closed and many Stuff sports reporters were made redundant recently and so fewer now report on swimming.
If you want to see the sport of swimming covered and the page expanded, please donate.
