SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENTS<br />
Speed, skill and tactic secured places for<br />
Callum and Cooper<br />
Callum Warden and Cooper Hancock (both Year 3), took<br />
part in the Under 9 trials at Redland United Football Club<br />
earlier in the year. The trials were held over two nights<br />
with 120 boys vying for only 20 positions. The trials were<br />
to seek out boys who demonstrated above average skills,<br />
who played with more speed and tactics and who had the<br />
required expertise to become a member of the Komodo<br />
Dragon Teams.<br />
Both boys were selected, Callum now plays for the<br />
Komodo Team ‘United’ and Cooper plays for the Komoto<br />
Team ‘Fury’, which has given the boys a wonderful<br />
opportunity, not only to play against some of the best<br />
teams from outlying clubs but also to develop their motor<br />
skill and playing skills.<br />
Queensland State Title win for Emily<br />
Emily Storey trains twice a week as a member of the<br />
Aquiline Club. At the end of 2010 she entered her first<br />
competition at the Sleeman Aquatic Centre at Chandler<br />
and came away with a 1st Place in her individual event<br />
and a 3rd Place in the team event, giving her a taste for<br />
competition sport and all the excitement of the challenge.<br />
In April this year Emily entered her second competition,<br />
this time at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre at Southport,<br />
where she notched up yet another win. Emily commenced<br />
synchronised swimming just over a year ago and found<br />
that she really enjoyed it, so to win her class in the<br />
Queensland State Titles (State Champion) added to her joy<br />
of competition swimming.<br />
As well as playing on home ground in Cleveland the boys<br />
also visit other club grounds. Callum and Cooper are very<br />
enthusiastic about the sport and have learnt not only new<br />
skills but also sportsmanship, respect for other players and<br />
the importance of being a team member.<br />
Zane named as Vice-Captain<br />
Zane Stock (Year 7) was delighted to be named as Vice-<br />
Captain of the Under 12 Met East AFL and was thrilled to<br />
receive his jumper. He was even more excited holding the<br />
position of Vice-Captain when he played in the recent State<br />
Championships. This is now Zane’s seventh year playing<br />
for the Redland Sharks.<br />
