THE Glasshouse Masters team enjoyed a great mini meet this weekend, with Cotton Tree Masters Swimming Club and Sunshine Coast Masters Swimming Club at Kawana Aquatic Centre. The long course event was well attended and the rain held off just long enough for the day. Team captain, Kylie Therese, said she was extremely proud of her team’s efforts.
“Great to see the team growing even throughout winter and members stepping up to race and challenge themselves,” she said.
“We’ve welcomed new members who have quickly got on board with training and racing and it’s amazing to see them shine.”
Highlights:
- Katherine excelled in her first masters team event in her 50m breaststroke and freestyle races.
- Mitch smashed four PBs and showed the results from all his hard work and focus in Winter training.
- Danielle tackled her first long course event and got four PBs for her events.
- After some time away from racing, Ange made her comeback with a strong 50m freestyle.
- Ngarita swam strong and was a great coaching support for the team.
- Lene got her final practice races in before the upcoming World Masters, looking strong and ready for next month’s global competition.
Thanks to Rosie for timekeeping and Kylie for cheering, supporting and photos for the day. Thanks to the great team at Sunshine Coast Masters Swimming for hosting and providing a great mini meet.
We enjoyed it so much and look forward to doing it all again!
