Year 7 and 8 Nippers
The surf was excellent on Wednesday afternoon which allowed the nippers to continue to develop their water skills. The board skills are making excellent progress.
On Saturday a strong onshore wind made the waves challenging, but the boys completed several events including an Ultra-Iron Man which involved a run to the top of Long Reef Headland as one of the run-legs.
The following results were recorded:
| Ultra Iron Man | Barry Rogers – Board | Surf Swim | Beach Run | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | Harrison Ayer | Harrison Ayer | Harrsion Ayer | Harrison Ayer |
| 2nd | Dash Du Vernet | Richard Gao | Richard Gao | Angus Collins |
| 3rd | Angus Collins | Dash Du Vernet | Dash Du Vernet | Dash Du Vernet |
| 4th | Jackson Dent | Oliver Rothwell | Toby Koch | Toby Koch |
| 5th | Richard Gao | Jackson Dent | Oliver Rothwell | Olliver Rothwell |
| 6th | Oliver Rothwell | Saxon Joyce | Saxon Joyce | Toby Armstrong |
Year 9 and 10 Bronze Medallion Group
The Bronze group have continued their skills and knowledge acquisition both in weekday training and during the Saturday session. They have focused on aquatic rescue in preparation for the assessment on 30 November. On the beach, the boys took part in a range of events, mostly focused on developing their aquatic rescue skills, including conscious tube rescues, which is a skill they have recently been introduced to.
Key date: Bronze Medallion Assessment. Saturday 30 November, 8am arrival.
Please note: This location is now Long Reef SLSC, which is a great result for our boys!
