Warriors excel at the Croc’s carnival

by Head Coach, Bj Parton

Eighteen Warriors competed in the Cooloola Croc’s swim meet. Each swimmer swam at their best and made coach proud. Well done Annie White for bringing home nine-year-old championship and Jasmin White for the eight-year-old age championship.

Congratulations also goes to Kiki for gold in breaststroke and bronze in butterfly. Zac took bronze for butterfly and Dari received bronze in breaststroke.

We saw a new side to Mikala over the weekend as she was determined not to let a swimmer pass her on the medley. She said, “I just need to get mad before a race so I swim faster.”!

There were a few first timers who gave it a go and enjoyed this time in the water. Max, Ruby, Zoe, Leilani, Tane and Guy all showed us what they can. Our dolphin programme is just amazing and we’re looking forward to the next one!

Remember, Swimming Australia helps out by offering 7s and under free membership to swim clubs. The government also offers “get started” vouchers.

So if your child needs to learn to swim, or wants to improve, come and see us at the Aquatic Centre for more details.
