Congratulations to all 43 competitors we had a great weekend.

Weather was windy all weekend with 1 rainy day which was Friday.

Thank you to all our Junior coaching staff that attended the weekend & supporting all competitors in all age groups. Our results show the great job that our Junior coaches have put in all season & we must congratulate them for their dedication.

A goal was set at the end of last season State Titles which was to acheive half the result (12th place) and as a team we did it.

Thank you to all our water safety - Phoebe Jeffery, Jack Raward & Conner McCormick and IRB personnel (Glenn Wright and Brett Bisby) for the weekend.

Thank you to all our Age Managers, Team Manager, set up & pack up crew & our support team - PARENTS.

Thank you to Nadine Bertwistle and her parents in co-ordination our Junior State dinner on Sunday.

A very big thank you to our officials Val & Peter Connell.

This now being my last official day as Director of Junior Activities I am proud to say we have acheived the goals that I had set for North Burleigh Juniors and we have come a long way from 3 years ago. I am very proud of all our children and to be associated with the North Burleigh Juniors.

THANK YOU

Jo Bisby - Junior President
