Global water instinct brand arena has announced a renewal of their sponsorship agreement with Australian backstroker Emily Seebohm. The 23-year-old from Brisbane was 2015’s leading female backstroker, winning both 100m and 200m titles at the FINA World Championships in Kazan, and will be hoping to emulate those efforts under the three-diamond banner at Rio’s Olympics this summer.
“I am very excited to have the opportunity to work with arena again especially in such a massive year,†she said on the announcement of the contract renewal. “With only two competitions left until our Australian Team Trials it’s great to be able to focus completely on my swimming.â€
Emily has been winning medals since the age of 14, claiming her first relay world title and world record at 15, and her first Olympic relay gold medal – also in world record time – as a 16-year-old. Since first signing with arena in 2011, she has built an impressive record of achievements: one Olympic gold and two silver medals, three World Championship titles (all in 2015), along with three silver medals and a bronze, and two titles at both of the Commonwealth Games and Pan Pacific Championships in 2014. She is the current Australian record holder for all individual women’s backstroke events in both long and short course – having set all the current marks during her time with arena – and in 2015 was named joint Australian Swimmer of the Year (with Bronte Campbell).
When she first teamed up with arena, Emily was the first Australian to sign with the Italian company for some time, following in the footsteps of the legendary Shane Gould, who was a member of the first Elite Team in the 1970s. Since joining the arena stable, five more champions have joined her, including 2015 FINA Male Swimmer of the Year Mitch Larkin, James Magnussen, Bronte and Cate Campbell, and Thomas Fraser-Holmes.
