The North Mackay Sinkers Masters Swimming Club is thrilled to announce its annual short course event, set for Saturday, 22nd February 2025. Open to registered Masters swimmers and guest participants aged 18 and over, this popular event welcomes swimmers from Central Queensland, beyond, and even recreational swimmers keen to test their skills.
The competition features a variety of strokes over distances ranging from 25m to 200m, as well as novelty events and relays. Events are tailored to individual performance, ensuring participants compete against swimmers with similar times. Results are sorted into Masters Swimming Queensland age groups, providing a fair and enjoyable experience for all.
As a fully sanctioned Masters Swimming Queensland event, participants can expect a professionally run competition with officials, accurate timing, and a carefully planned program. It’s the perfect opportunity for both seasoned and first-time swimmers to enjoy a supportive, friendly environment while achieving official swim times.
Non-registered Masters participants will need to pay a small registration and insurance fee, allowing them to compete in up to six events. For those seeking to prepare, the 2025 12-month membership offers access to club training sessions and activities.
Training sessions resume in January 2025, with highlights including Social Saturdays, Millie Mondays, and mid-week swims. Guests can enjoy a trial month to experience the club’s welcoming culture before deciding to join.
