SIXT Australia<\/a> are excited to announce our new partnership with Swimming Australia<\/a><\/strong> for the upcoming Australian Short Course Championships and Australian Open Water Championships. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SIXT was officially welcomed to the Swimming Australia family today by Interim CEO Steve Newman<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

To attract a brand like SIXT shows how much cut through and splash Swimming Australia, and the Dolphins, are making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And with swimming events held throughout the country \u2013 including Sydney Short Course from September 13-16 \u2013 there are fantastic opportunities for the brand to grow in our national community.<\/p>\nCEO Steve Newman <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

SIXT is proud to announce our partnership with Swimming Australia, coming on board as an official vehicle rental partner for the Australian Short Course Championships and the Australian Open Water Championships.
Not only will we be helping the team in their travels, we will also be offering Swimming Australia\u2019s fan base and families with discounts on vehicle rentals around Australia.
Australia is a sporting nation but more importantly a swimming one. SIXT are thrilled to be supporting our swimmers and their families as they work towards the Brisbane Olympics in 2032.
We wish all the swimmers success in their respective events, and look forward to supporting the wider Swimming Australia community with their vehicle rental needs.<\/p>\nCEO SIXT Australia, Matt Beattie<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

SIXT Australia is 100% Australian owned by The NRMA, operating one of the largest vehicle rental fleets in the country with more than 16,000 vehicles including compact cars<\/a>, SUVs<\/a>, premium and electric vehicles not to mention utes<\/a>, vans<\/a>, trucks<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Swimming Australia community will enjoy 15% off* passenger vehicles including premium and electric vehicles<\/a> at 160+ locations nation-wide for their road trip needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
