Kiama athletes performed admirably at the Mid South Coast Zone championships held at Myimbarr Community Park, Flinders, on the 9th and 10th 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 Wollongong in February 2018. To date 32 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 Connor Deegan (Under 8), Bailey Egan (Under 9), Jasmine Snow (Under 10), Cooper Deegan (under 11), Elias Oldfield (Under 11), Jordan Poole (Under 11), Noah Parker (Under 12), Lachlan Poole (Under 13), Eliza Schweitzer (Under 13), Tyrell Taione (Under 13), Georgia Richards (Under 14), Ella Cleal-Cook (Under 15), Matt Cordell (Under 15), Liam Hinchcliffe (Under 15), Alicia Burazin (Under 17), Lachlan Crawford (Under 17), Grace Mahon (Under 17) and Nathan Scollary (Under 17).
Under 7 athlete Ginger Siasat 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 Sarah Cook and Dawn Calvert.
Results from the championships are available here.
Our last meet for 2017 will commence at 5:30pm on Friday 15th December.
We hope everyone has a happy and safe Christmas and will see you back at the track on January 12.
