Rainbow Beach Warrior News

by Bj Parton, Head coach/Instructor

The past few weeks the Warriors have been attending away meets and leaving a footprint wherever they go!

Congratulations to all five who attended the Gympie swim meet. Annalise White received silver in 50m breaststroke and freestyle. Jasmin White brought home gold in 50m freestyle, breaststroke, butterfly, bronze in 50m backstroke and, a huge accomplishment, 9 Years Age Champion.

Most of the Warriors who attended the Murgon had never been to an away meet, so this was an especially great experience for them.

Billy Bergin received bronze in backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle and his brother Guy powered up the 50m pool and now having times to swim against for his next long course meet.

When Mikala Daniels (after all her training) brought home gold in 100m breaststroke and silver in 50m breaststroke it brought a tear to my eyes.

Amber Daniels took bronze in 50m breaststroke, and her sister Chloe Daniels was amazing taking silver home for all 4 strokes.

Kyani Parton received bronze for her 50m breaststroke, while her brother Seth won bronze in 50m breaststroke.

Mason Bignell had a reason to celebrate, taking gold in freestyle, silver in butterfly, bronze in backstroke and the best part – 8 Years Age Champion!

Squad and Learn to Swim classes are continuing to grow with more swimmers attending each week. Club night has brought some fantastic PB (personal best) results:
