  + stars: | 2023-08-17 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
The reforms in the constitution will align Swimming Australia's governance with the requirements of World Aquatics and the International Olympic Committee. Australia are among the strongest swimming nations in the world and topped the gold medal tally at the world championships in Japan last month. World Aquatics said it had endorsed the new constitution after being consulted during the process of its development. "World Aquatics welcomes the changes to the Swimming Australia constitution, which will give more power to athletes and a voice on the board, while also delivering a broader voting base more closely connected to athletes and coaches," said World Aquatics Executive Director Brent Nowicki. "The changes will also allow for a modernised governance structure that aligns with the sport's requirements as a member of World Aquatics."
