“The upcoming Victorian Country Championships should not only aim to celebrate the dedication and commitment of countless swimmers, but also the timeless hours of devotion from club elders. Their contribution and devotion to regional sport is in short invaluable,” the club says.
As well as 65 individual entrants, the Bendigo Hawks also have relay teams competing at the championships, which were last year held at the Bendigo Aquatic Centre.
The Bendigo Hawks are coached by James Sherlock.
