Kiama athletes performed admirably at the Mid South Coast Zone championships held at the Frogs Holla Sports Complex, Milton, on the 10th and 11th of December.
Against some tough competition from the Albion Park, Lake Illawarra, Shoalhaven, St Georges Basin, and Milton Ulladulla Centres, Kiama athletes did the club proud.
Athletes from the Under 8 to Under 17 Age Groups who finished in the top three progress to the Region 4 Championships to be held at Wagga Wagga in February 2017. To date 22 Kiama athletes have qualified for the Region 4 Championships but more are expected to qualify on “next best” times and distances as results from other Zones filter through.
Kiama’s gold medal winners on the weekend were Gabriel Lombardi (Under 8), Cooper Deegan (under 10), Lachlan Poole (Under 12), Eliza Schweitzer (Under 12), Tyrell Taione (Under 12), Georgia Richards (Under 13), Ella Cleal-Cook (Under 14), Alicia Burazin (Under 15), Grace Mahon (Under 15), Nathan Scollary (Under 15) and Lewis Terry (Under 15).
Under 7 athletes Connor Deegan and Preston Sager also won gold and were presented with LANSW medals at the carnival.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the weekend such a success particularly our Team Managers Sarah Cook and Dawn Calvert.
Results from the championships are available here.
Our last meet for 2016 will commence at 5:30pm on Friday 16th December.
We hope everyone has a happy and safe Christmas and will see you back at the track on January 13.
