COOLANGATTA gold came home with the Noosa Nippers on the weekend with the Under 12 girls winning a gold trifecta in beach relays, flags and sprints.
The depth of talent in the team saw the Under 13 girls bring home silver in the relay while the boys picked up silver and bronze in the Under 13 sprints and flags.
Noosa Nippers were also represented at Saturday’s Alexandra Heads Carnival where Lilly Tindal came third in the Under 14 Branch Champion Lifesaver.
Back home at Noosa Main Beach on Sunday, the calm conditions and small waves made for great training conditions for all Nippers despite the grey skies and occasional showers.
Nippers have the Club Championships next week and age managers were reporting great strides forward at all levels.
Under 8 to Under 10 parents kept the barbecue firing from the early hours to feed friends and visitors and raise much needed funds for the club. Thanks to all who choose to support Noosa Nippers by enjoying the tasty breakfast fare on offer each week.
