Approximately forty runners tackled the 30km, 15km, and 5km distances last Sunday as they sprinted through the scenic Mackay region, from Glenella to West Mackay and then out to the Mackay Harbour and back.

Mackay Road Runners Northview Park 30km Club Championship, 15km and 5km were held in perfect running conditions from the playground carpark at Northview Park, Schapers Road, Glenella. 

Club President, Brendan Bishop was a major contributor for the streamlined success of the event alongside fellow committee members Mick and Bec Scholer, Andrew Short, Julie Whibley, Arthur Dick and Jo Hughes.

Classy performances were seen all-round from the 5km and 15km events starting at 6.15am through to the 30km event commencing at 6am.  Paul MacKenzie led the 30km field with Mick Vivian sitting in second with a multitude of changes for the bronze position throughout the 30km with Shane Donnollan snatching third place from Grant Holmstrom, Kaye Nyenuh, Clinton Mackie, Matt Bampton, Jim Perkins and David Perkins. 

The female 30km saw Teresa Hackney looking very comfortable from the start, taking an early lead and retaining it right through to the finish line ahead of Carmel Mahon, Tahnie Malagueno, Carolyn Mapes, Carole Dawes and Brenda Windsor.

The 5km and 15km competitors were very strong with female runners, Alana Knezevic, Mel Esau, Naomi Ballard, and Emily Dalglish leading the charge early alongside talented male runners, Jared Mackie, Hamish Donnolllan, Cory Gould, Michael Scholer, John Roe, Darrin Pullen, Alan Zamparutti, Andrew Short and Tim Caddy. 

Next Sunday’s popular, yet historical Farmers Long Gallop 6km and 17km run will commence from Agnes Farmers home at 62 Evans Avenue, North Mackay.  Agnes and her late husband Fred have been integral life members of the Mackay Road Runners since its inception nearly 50 years ago.  Fred was the runner in the family; however, Agnes was a wholehearted supporter of the Club and Fred’s illustrious running career. 

Although Agnes may not be a morning person, she has generously hosted this morning run for 48 years.

The Sea Eagles Juniors braved the pre-dawn chill on Saturday, traveling to Rogers Oval to take on the Eastern Swans and Bakers Creek. Meanwhile, the Seniors hit the road to clean up the Mackay Magpies on their home turf.
The Sea Eagles Senior Men celebrated Captain Alex Rodgers' 100th senior game in style with a win over the Mackay Magpies, who sit above them on the ladder. It was a tight contest all day, with the Sea Eagles finishing strong with a 72-53 victory. Fraser Carroll kicked four goals up forward, while Billy Galpin was everywhere again through the midfield, supported by Brent Downie and Aidan Allen-Fancke. The Sea Eagles look for community support at home this week as they take on ladder leaders Eastern Swans in the first of two back-to-back Swans rounds.
After a couple of losses, the Sea Eagles Senior Women were keen to secure a win against the Mackay Magpies. Going back to basics paid off with a 32-16 win. In the opening quarter, the Sea Eagles had five shots on goal. Although not kicking as many goals as they would have liked, the team worked together for a great game.
The Sea Eagles Under 17s took on Bakers Creek at Rogers Oval. With the Tigers short on numbers, the Sea Eagles lent some players for the game to go ahead. In a one-sided affair, the Sea Eagles dominated through the middle, providing plenty of forward opportunities and winning comfortably 61-1.
Having won against the Eastern Swans a few weeks ago at home, the Sea Eagles Under 14s were keen to repeat the feat in Mackay. Unfortunately, the Swans had cleaner play in the dewy conditions, leading to a 12-52 loss for the Sea Eagles.
The Under 12 Eastern Swans continued their unbeaten streak, defeating the Sea Eagles 29-3. However, the Sea Eagles achieved a minor victory by keeping the Swans to their lowest total for the season.
This weekend, the Whitsunday Sea Eagles are at home. The Seniors and Under 14s will play at the Nest, while the Under 12s and Under 17s have a bye. The Under 14s will face the Saints at 10:40 am, followed by the Seniors against the Swans at 12:15 pm.

Division 2 Men
The Division 2 men travelled to Mackay aiming to close the gap to the top-of-the-table Dolphins. Early missed opportunities proved costly, and the Dolphins secured a 5-1 victory. Goalkeeper Ross put in an excellent performance, keeping the scoreline respectable.
Division 1 Men
The Division 1 men faced a youthful Dolphins team, dominating the first half. Despite missing clear chances and an injury delay, Whitsunday held on for a 2-1 win, maintaining their top position. Chris scored his first club goal, and Ralé notched his fourth goal in three games.
Under-13 Division 1
The U13 Division 1 team had a fantastic game against Wanderers Red. Trailing 1-0 at halftime, Whitsunday came back strong in the second half with Liam Jankowski scoring three goals, leading the team to a 3-1 victory.
Under-13 Premier
The U13 Premier team had another great week. Shannon Matthews scored the first goal after a dazzling midfield run and a quick one-two. Shortly after, she curled in another from a corner. Alex Draper cleaned up a scramble in the box to make it 3-0 at halftime. City Brothers pressed harder in the second half, but Whitsunday held on for a 3-0 win.
Under-15 Division 1
The U15 Division 1 team started strong, with early goals from Dwayne and Tyler C, but trailed 5-2 at halftime. Lions Black dominated the second half, resulting in a final score of 15-2.
Under-23 Ladies
The U23 ladies faced a frustrating 1-0 loss against City. Despite dominating possession, they couldn’t find the finishing touch. City scored on a transition play, and Whitsunday couldn’t equalize. Danielle was confident in defence, and Piper showed great positioning in attack.
Premier Ladies
The Premier ladies bounced back with a strong performance against City. Up 3-0 at halftime thanks to Bre and Ellyse, they never looked back. Willow, Mathilde, and Imo added to the tally in the second half, with the final score an impressive 11-0. Willow scored four, Bre and Mathilde each scored twice, Ellyse added two, and Imo scored one with a header.
Premier Men - Under-23 Squad
The young Whitsunday U23 squad faced the top-of-the-table Magpies but couldn’t match their firepower, losing 4-1. Jack Robertson scored the lone goal for Whitsunday.
Premier Men
The Premier Men faced the Magpies with a chance to take the lead at the top of the table. A slow start saw them two goals down at halftime. Despite a strong second half with goals from Jake Kenna and Jack Jenks, they couldn’t complete the comeback, losing 3-2. It was a valiant effort by Whitsunday, despite missing four key players

U13 Div1 – happy after a good win against Wanderers

U13 Prems – a friendly David and Goliath struggle.

U13 Prems – great determination from both sides

For the past 18 months Airlie Beach Cricket has been setting up stumps and looking to establish the popular summer sport at the Whitsunday Sportspark, but the request has become a contentious issue following concerns that the grounds are already running at 200% capacity.

Football, Touch Football, Netball, Rugby Union and AFL form the five Foundation Club Members which all have voting rights and at the end of this month, the five codes will all cast their vote on whether to allow Airlie Beach Cricket to play at the grounds.

There are mixed views on the issue, although the general consensus is to include Cricket, despite it adding to an already over-populated ground.

And while some of the playing fields are running at 200% capacity the current AFL pitch (which could be shared by cricket during the summer months), is not.

Airlie Beach Cricket assert that there are countless grounds across Australia where AFL and Cricket harmoniously share their fields, from the GABBA to Harrup Park.

The deeper issue, however, seems to be an already straining facility which is struggling to accommodate the existing sporting activities.

A statement from the Whitsunday Sea Eagles AFL Club said they “currently use the full field from January to September with Carnivals throughout the year and development through November.”

They believe this conflicts with the Cricket season which is hoping to run from September through to March.

Other sports clubs using the facility, however, have shared their sporting field for a number of years and are working together to arrange a schedule so both sports can live symbiotically.

“We all work around each other, everyone works together,” said Allan Milostic from Airlie Beach Football Club.

“Fundamentally we are inclusive, and we do want more sports. The biggest issue is green space and ideally, we’d have plenty of land for everyone.

“Football doesn’t have an issue with cricket being there, with the caveat that it doesn’t impact existing codes.”

Whitsunday Touch have similar views.

“I’m totally about inclusivity, it’s a community sport and all are included,” said Alita De Brincat from Whitsunday Touch.

“We as a committee have made a decision to support it, but it was not a unanimous decision, we went with the majority on the basis of being inclusive and the community working together.”

Meanwhile, Tim Oberg President of Whitsunday Junior Rugby Union, said "we firmly believe that establishing a new cricket club in Airlie Beach will be a tremendous asset to our community.

The Whitsunday Sportspark Committee also believe the inclusion of Cricket would work in a practical sense.

“Whilst our facility is far too small to service the growing town and the bottom fields are running at over 200% of carrying capacity with soccer, rugby and touch using them, the top oval is not running at full capacity,” said Justin Butler, Chairman of the Whitsunday Sportspark.

Mr Butler adds that including another sport will “put further pressure on all levels of government to develop a second sporting complex for the town.”

There is 100 acres of Whitsunday Regional Council owned land located opposite Brandy Creek Road and it was purchased 12 years ago with intention that it will become a sporting complex and possibly new high school.

“Council need to push for it,” said Allan Milostic.

“We urgently need more playing spaces and steps need to be taken urgently.”

The Mackay Rugby competition is just over halfway and what a season it has been!
My first season didn’t start as planned, popping my shoulder out round one, but it’s given me a different perspective of the sport of rugby.
Being able to coach (and I use that term loosely) the backs, while recovering from my shoulder injury, has given me a new appreciation for the sport as a whole.
The Brothers had a slow start to the season, the boys have really fired in the last few weeks and are coming together!
The Mackay competition is very competitive and it’s awesome to see teams from The Whitsundays, Moranbah and Bowen performing so well with heavy travel schedules.
My beloved Mackay Brothers take on the Whitsundays Raiders this Saturday (the 15th) and Airlie sports park, and you know what, I feel a win for the brothers is coming!
I hope I haven’t put the mocker on us.
Get around local rugby in Mackay/Whitsundays!!

Recognising the importance of blood and plasma donations, the North Mackay Sinkers Masters Swimming Club have made an impactful commitment in support of the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood organisation. 
A while ago, the Sinkers executive committee discovered that several members regularly donated blood or plasma. They decided to reach out and explore how the club could support this valuable community activity, thus, the North Mackay Sinkers Masters Swimming Club Life Blood Team was established.
In a unique team-based event, the Sinkers established a Red Cross Blood Team where 25% of the club contributed to the vital blood supply in 2023 with 15 members participating in the first year.
In 2023, their collective efforts resulted in 61 donations, aiding the Red Cross in providing essential products to 192 patients in urgent need of life-saving transfusions.
The 2024 year is off the starting blocks in fine form with the team now boasting 17 members. At the end of May they had made 43 donations to assist 129 lives. The club is now on track to handsomely exceed its 2023 total and has set a new PB target of 80 donations and 240 patients assisted in their need of blood products.
Surprisingly the relatively small club Life Blood Team lies in 7th place behind some heavy hitting companies and organisations.
On a recent donation it was noticed that a certain member of the Mackay Road Runners was also in to provide a blood donation.
With the 16th BMA Marina run now completed, the Sinkers are eager to know if the Road Runners might like to form a Life Blood Team and bolster the Mackay Red Cross Blood centre with another team in a spirit of friendly community care.
Has your Sporting Club got a Life Blood Team? If so, the North Mackay Sinkers would love to know so that the sporting community can jump on board and get involved in this opportunity to assist patients in need of crucial blood necessities.
As they surpass previous achievements, the North Mackay Sinkers extend a heartfelt invitation to the broader community to dive into this great cause.
If your club would like to form a Life Blood Team, contact the Red Cross on 13 14 95 and ask for the coordinator to assist.
