Kiama athletes performed admirably at the Mid South Coast Zone championships held at Sanctuary Point Oval, Sanctuary Point, on the 1st and 2nd of December.
Against some tough competition from the Albion Park, Euro Coast, 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 Griffith in February 2019.
Kiama’s gold medal winners on the weekend were Lily Bell (Under 11), Sienna Bell (Under 14), Joshua Bender (Under 12), Mischa Boniface (Under 13), Alicia Burazin (Under 15), Matt Cordell (Under 17), Elias Oldfield (Under 12), Jordan Poole (Under 12), Georgia Richards (Under 17), Preston Sager (Under 10), Eliza Schweitzer (Under 14), Tyrell Taione (Under 14), Jayce Watters (Under 8), Tanna Watters (Under 12) and Amelia Weatherlake (Under 12).
Under 7 athlete Emerson Boatswain also won gold and was 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 Taryn Hodgson and Dawn Calvert.
