On the 26th of February, our Little Nippers (Age Groups U8 – U9) flocked to the beach, at Mullaloo SLSC, to compete in this season’s state competition.
Mullaloo was electric with energy, as you could hear the cheering, screaming, and support from everyone on the sand, as well as, the number of competitors and families that crowded around the arenas. The day was scheduled to get hot! and as hundreds stood on the sand or under the shade tents, watching their friends and loved ones compete, you could feel the breeze settle and the sun rays set in, with this, meant conditions in the water were calmer, with a small shore dump coming through occasionally as our younger members competed in water events.

Across the age groups, we had a number of members finish on the podium, taking home one of the coveted medals, and being recognized as top in the state for what they love to do.
We also want to acknowledge those who may not have medalled but finished strong in the finals to be recognized as top 6 in WA!
This is an amazing feat, and we’re very proud of all our younger members, who represented the club with tenacity and energy.
