Junior Skills<br />
Burnett Fraser<br />
Junior skills clinics were held in Burnett Fraser and on the Sunshine Coast. 44 swimmers<br />
enjoyed the weekend in Bundaberg where they had a Saturday afternoon and Sunday swim<br />
session, played 10pin bowling and camped at Riverside Retreat. An evening of team challenges<br />
meant swimmers retired ready for a good nights sleep. A great plan for all the parents. It<br />
meant a good nights sleep for all. This weekend is subsidised with each swimmer paying $36<br />
which included a shirt. Many thanks to Scott Hamlet (Fairymead), Jane Stebhens (Kolan),<br />
Anne Walters (Gympie South) & Heather from Burrum for facilitating such a great program .<br />
Thanks also to Fairymead for the yummy food.<br />
Sunshine Coast<br />
Almost fifty Sunshine Coast swimmers meet on Saturday 6 th September 2008, at Immanuel<br />
College, Wises Road, Buderim. The squad program started with guest speaker Brian Stehr<br />
(assisted by Janelle Elford) talking about “Being prepared for training and competition”. The<br />
focus of the presentation was nutrition as many swimmers need to be eating for energy or<br />
energy replacement, in particular at carnivals. Parents and swimmers were invited to attend.<br />
After a healthy morning tea provided by Maroochydore SC & parents, a pool session followed.<br />
Swimmers worked very well together in the busy pool. With Referee Robin Clarke on deck, a<br />
number of parents learnt and practiced Technical Official duties while observing the<br />
swimmers, in particular their starts, turns and finishes. A well earned lunch break followed<br />
which included more examples of healthy eating to aid recovery. Coaches for the day included<br />
Dennye Baxter(Kilcoy), Brendan (Kilcoy), Rob Gough (Mooloolah Valley) & Diane Feldman.<br />
The day was completed with an afternoon activity at Top Shots, Maroochydore were swimmers<br />
were challenged at putt putt golf, the indoor rock climbing wall, blaster boats etc.<br />
South Burnett<br />
The Junior Skills day was held on 6 December at the Murgon pool. Steve Smith was head<br />
coach and most swimmers from the south Burnett attended the day. Following the clinic time<br />
trials were held to allow South Burnett swimmers to gain a current LC time in the lead up to<br />
State Sprints in February. Murgon SC provided a fantastic BBQ lunch for all.
