Preview Pathway Back to Team

Background

Rising Through
the Ranks

Hannah Fredericks represents the future of Australian backstroke. A competitive swimmer from Queensland, she has been a consistent presence at national-level competition and has steadily built toward international selection.

After narrowly missing the 2024 Paris Olympic team — one of the most painful near-misses in Australian swimming selection — she regrouped with remarkable resilience. At the 2025 Australian Swimming Trials, she delivered the performances needed to earn her first Dolphins cap.

Her inclusion in Lane Four as a co-founder reflects not just her athletic trajectory, but the authenticity she brings — someone who understands the grind, the near-misses, and what it takes to come back stronger. Hannah's program is built for swimmers who relate to that journey: structured technique development, gym and dryland conditioning, event lead-ins and the confidence tools that matter most when the pressure is on.
