The 2024 Aquaknights Zonal Secondary School Open Water Swimming Championships is held on 30 March in Mt Maunganui and is a great opportunity for students to get involved in open water swimming. Swimming NZ is proud to partner with the popular Banana Boat NZ Ocean Swim Series, as this event is held in conjunction with the Generation Homes The Mount Swim as part of that series.

There are distances that cater for everyone, with the 1250m swims for those interested in giving it a go, and the 2.8km for those more experienced or wanting to challenge themselves. It’s a great way to represent your school and enjoy the Kiwi summer outdoors.

Entries close on Sunday 3 April.
