23 Cannonvale Cannons travelled to Brisbane to compete at the Queensland Sprint Championships on the weekend. This was the highest number of Cannons that have ever competed at a state competition. The coaches, Ken Crittenden, and Mark Erickson were very proud of all the Cannons and their achievements. It was the first state championship for many of the young Cannons and they all performed extremely well. The coaches would like to thank all the parents for supporting the swimmers and the team at the championships.
Three Cannons made finals and received Top 10 ribbons. Ehsan Helou and Noah Maltby, both aged 15 years made the final for 50m Breaststroke. Ehsan came 6th and Noah came 6th in Queensland. Jax Clayworth, aged 10 years made the final for 50m Butterfly and was excited with his 7th place and ribbon. Congratulations, Ehsan, Noah and Jax!
The following swimmers performed extremely and achieved 2 or 3 personal best times: Declan Dichiera, Don Algie, Tyler Bennett, Charlie Doherty, Tora Delac, Thomas Ganter, Ruby Harland, Indi Smith, Alex Trefz, Zach Trefz, Matilda Nicholes, Noah Maltby, Jax Clayworth, Celeste Orenshaw, Isaac Pisaniello, and Andie Reynolds.
Special mentions: Harris Delac, aged 10 years, swam a fantastic 50m Freestyle in a time of 37.01sec. Millie Groom’s best swim was her 50m Butterfly which she swam in 37.83sec. Remy Hedges, aged 16 years, swam an excellent 50m Breaststroke in a time of 37.85s which was a 0.4sec PB. Although Addie Sanders, Isabella Pisaniello and Anisa Helou didn’t swim personal best times they swam very close to their best and enjoyed the experience.
