HI EVERYONE!The start of the QLD State Championships is just about a month away!

Our swimmers competed at regional,

state and national level meets in

October and achieved some great

results. A small team swam at the

Kawana LC Challenge and came

home with a swag of medals and PBs.

Chelsea Gubecka was a member of

the winning Qld Team at the State

Teams Short Course Championships

in Canberra. Swimmers aspiring for a

spot at the QLD State Titles swam

well at the QLD Long Course

Qualifying Meet#1 at Chandler. Our

open water participants who battled

the choppy water at Lake Kawana

were rewarded w i th na t iona l

qualifying times and some good wins.

Well done to all!
