Swimming Australia partner with City Fertility for Women’s Health

Swimming Australia has partnered with Australia’s leading IVF & fertility service group, City Fertility.

The official partner of Swimming Australia will promote education and awareness for the sport.

City Fertility will also provide direct access to services for Swimming Australia athletes and staff.

Swimming Australia CEO, Eugénie Buckley, said: “The health and wellbeing of our athletes remains our highest priority and that must extend beyond their time in the pool as we work to ensure they are positioned for a happy and healthy life after swimming.”

“Partnering with City Fertility empowers us to both learn from, and collaborate with global leaders in this space, driving change for our athletes now and into the future.

“There are great synergies between our two brands, particularly the shared culture of research, innovation and technology, and we are excited to see this partnership grow and the benefits it will bring for our broader swimming family,” he said.

The leading IVF & Fertility service has 12 clinics around Australia, 70 consulting rooms and more than 60 fertility specialists nationwide.

CEO and scientific director, Adnan Catakovic, added: “As one of the country’s leading fertility groups, the team at City Fertility prides itself on excellence. We see this partnership with Swimming Australia as an opportunity to not only educate but positively contribute to our elite athletes at every stage of their lives.”

“Understanding the female physiology is crucial when it comes to fertility, we have access to the latest research and look forward to sharing that with the Swimming Australia team.

“We’re ready to dive right in and get started,” he said.
