Well, they have done it again, more success. This time it’s the Noosa’s Athletics, whose athletes have come home from their Australian All School Championships in Perth West Australia: and they came home wearing medals. Starting way back in early May this year, the Noosa Athletics training squad has been hard at it ever since: and the results in this very big competitive sport, have been most satisfactory.
Two members of the squad Luca Gerrard U15 and Marlon Andrews U14, saw their efforts rewarded. Luca competing in the Triple Jump won the bronze medal with a personal best jump of 12.69 m. Following this Marlon competing in the 100m, 200m sprints, 4x100m relay and 4×100 mixed relay, winning three bronze medals: in the 100m sprint and bronze medals in both relays. The 200m final saw a respected 5th place.
A very proud Head Coach Mick Hooper said, “The club is super proud of Luca and Marlon coming away with such fabulous results: competing against the best school aged students in all of Australia.” Once again, we at Noosa Today extend our congratulations to all our athletes involved in the various sports. Noosa Athletics, Jiu-Jitsu, Karate Noosa, Pickleball, Weightlifting and the Nutri Grain Series.
These outstanding results, achieved in the last couple of months, makes all of us, in the Noosa community very proud of our youth, our coaches and their clubs.
