STATE WRAP

We have enjoyed hosting the State Titles this season for the fourth year running, this was our last year hosting with Swansea / Belmont taking reigns next season 2016/17.

This time around we saw perfect conditions for all competitors which produced some great results. Below are some snapshots/ highlights from State.

A huge thank you should go out to all the enthusiastic competitors and to all the volunteers who put in an amazing amount of time and energy into ensuring the Titles ran smoothly and successfully.

AUSSIE TITLES

Season 2015/16 our team headed to sunny Queensland for this major event. We would like to congratulate all of our Australian Medalllists! We are very proud of every one of you. Jemma has been named Female Athlete of the Aussies 2016. At the Australian Championship, Umina was awarded the inaugural Viking Cup, introduced by Currumbin Surf Club, for the winner of the championships.

The cup was based on a handicap score taking into account the number of competitors and their overall results.

Umina did not have the largest contingent of team members participating but they did have outstanding results in the top three placings.

Umina Surf Lifesaving Club members Jemma Smith and Rachel Wood have both been selected to be part of the Australian Youth Team for the International Surf Lifesaving Championships. Garry Mensforth has been chosen as a team manager. Jemma was asked to be the captain of the youth team and is looking forward to being an excellent role model. The International Surf Lifesaving Championships encompass both pool and surf competition and will be held in various locations in The Netherlands in September. Kerry Armstrong Smith and Bronte Smith will travel to the championships and compete as Umina representatives in the inter club competition. "We wish them all the best and are proud that they are representatives for the Central Coast and Australia,"
