UWA torpedoes and Comets national Water Polo league 2010 With the National League season due to begin in early February the two UWA teams are taking quite different approaches. The Comets, with a very young team have most of their players committed to the National 18 and Under Championships that soon begin in Perth and finish just before the NL season begins.

Comets will be coached again by Tibor Seress and will boast two import players for season 2010, with star goalie Carina Harache returning from New Zealand to play on the eastern states road trips in Sydney and Brisbane. Georgina Kovacs has come (pictured on arrival) from Hungary as an experienced player to play with the youngsters and will prove a great mentor for them. The team’s youth is sure to present many challenges for the players and coaching staff alike.

Torpedoes are being coached by Andrei Kovalenko (Kova) for the first time and he has spent many months preparing his young squad. The “Torps” will be boosted by the arrival of two imports - American goalie Jimmy Sandman and Hungarian strongman Zsolt Kistamas.

Upcoming Events

HbF Freeway bike Hike21 march 2010Fast approaching is the Freeway Bike Hike for Asthma on 21 of March. Birthed as a unique fundraising event for the Asthma Foundation of Western Australia, the Bike Hike has evolved into WA’s largest mass participation cycling event.

Now entering its sixth year The HBF Freeway Bike Hike for Asthma is Western Australia’s largest single day cycling event and the third largest cycling event in Australia.

With Team UWA having more than 60 participants in 2009, 2010 is expected to be even bigger with a hoped for 100 participants taking part from the UWA community.

The Bike Hike caters for beginners through to elite cyclists and includes three options to choose from; the 60km from Kwinana train station, the 30km from Belmont Park Racecourse, or 10km Family Ride from Greenwood train station with all three rides finishing in the City of Joondalup. So whatever your skill level there is a ride to suit your ability and other riders to share the experience with.

To register visit www.registernow.com.au, select team entry, enter ‘UWA’ as the team name and simply follow the prompts!

ASICS bridges Fun run28 march 2010

The Asics Bridges Fun Run is a community charity race comprising of a 5km event starting in South Perth with the traditional 10km starting and finishing on Langley Park. It is organised by the West Australian Marathon Club and over the years has become a highlight on the UWA sporting calendar. Participants run, jog or walk their chosen distance and enjoy some refreshments as well as good company at the finish line.

Last year Team UWA took to the field with many great runners including Courtney Carter placing an impressive first and Roberto Busi placing second in the 10km run, Dan Mcqueen placing second in the 5km run and runners

Ben Green and Clarence Lun both also finishing highly.

With around 100 UWA participants expected to take to the field we expect another stellar turnout and performance.

If you are thinking about participating in the City to Surf further on in the year, the Fun Run will provide you with a rewarding training incentive and a great way to be part of the vibrant UWA sporting culture.

Email [email protected] for further details. Hope you choose to join us on this most splendid day, see you there!
