Under 9 news from Brad

/0 Comments/in , /by

Over the past two weeks we have seen some great efforts in the under 9 age group.

We had 10 children complete their first Ocean Timed Swim last Saturday in choppy conditions and have had an additional 11 complete their survival float and 25m evaluation swim.

With another nice weekend forecast we will definitely see more kids complete their swim.

A special mention to TJ who did 2 Ocean Timed Swims on Saturday and was wanting to do more.

Excellent effort by all of the kids for having a go at these testing activities.

We had seven competitors ranging from U14 through to Open compete in the first event held at Southport so it would be great if we could get higher numbers for this, the last event in the series.

This event is open to all male and female U13/14/15 (board only) and U17/19/Open/Masters (board and ski) competitors.

If total numbers competing across all clubs are sufficient the aim is to have 3 races per age group per discipline.
