We had 2 very talented Sharks, Kurt and Yaroslav, compete at the 2017 NSW 10U-12 Years State LC Championships held in Sydney on Tuesday & Wednesday, 12 & 13 December, 2017. Both Sharks competed at such a high standard and were fantastic competitors.
To put the Championships into perspective, there were 1162 competitors from 133 swimming clubs competing. Our Sharks should be extremely proud of their efforts as overall, they came and outstanding 11th Place in the Team Scores for Men.
