The Cannonvale Cannons sent seven swimmers to participate at the seven-day long Queensland LC Championships in Brisbane, starting last weekend.
The Cannons fielded two relay teams at the championships: a Female 16 years and Under 200-metre Free team and an Open Mixed 200-metre Freestyle side.
Holly Perrin, Remy Hedges, Tora Delac, and Tiana Bell comprised the Female U16s, while Holly Perrin, Remy Hedges, Jy Parkinson, and Jacob Dewis represented in the Open grade.
The swimmers did exceptionally, but most importantly enjoyed their relays.
Jy and Jacob doubled up as members of the North Queensland Male Medley relay team, finishing in second place – and chuffed with their silver medals.
The Cannons look forward to hearing how the swimmers go with their individual events over the next few days.
Meanwhile back at home, the Cannons hosted a very successful Christmas Club Night on Wednesday.
Over 44 swimmers participated in races and fun relays, enjoying the annual Christmas ice block relay and all the delicious yuletide food.
Congratulations to Remy Hedges, Eloise Chegwidden, and Jy Parkinson for setting new Club Records.
The Cannons also commended Jack Ganter, Isabella Pisaniello, and Celeste Orenshaw on their Chocolate Awards for personal bests.
Giselle Burton presented Upgrade Certificates to Matilda Nicholes and Maeve Dichieria, with Giselle also presenting Remy Hedges with her State Shirt.
Highlights from Club Night include: Miller Eaves and Murphy Jamieson swimming extremely well in their first Club Night.
Anisa Helou, Jasper Korosec, Indi Smith, and Levi Smith swimming personal best times in all their events.
Eloise Chegwidden, aged seven, smashing out a super 50-metre Breaststroke in 56.41 seconds, followed by her brother, Harry, swimming a fantastic time of 16.35 seconds in his 12-metre Freestyle.
And finally, Piper Walker, aged seven, swam a fabulous 25-metre Freestyle in 27.43 seconds, cutting off an impeccable 11.08 seconds from her previous best.
Well done to all the swimmers and their families who got involved with the Christmas Club Night.
