Fiji will be sending about 49 swimmers to the 2015 Pacific School Games that will be held in Adelaide, Australia from this Friday.

Small groups of swimmers have gone to the games before Fiji school swimming was formed in 1999 to take a team to the Sydney pacific school games in 2000 and Fiji has attended every one since.

Incomparable to any other international school sport championship, the Pacific School Games provides opportunities for around 4000 school-aged students to participate in nine different sports at the highest level.
