Under clear skies and easing winds, the Cannonvale Cannons Swimming Club hosted the 2024 Winter Short Course Transition Meet on Saturday at the Cannonvale Swim Centre. The meet welcomed 104 swimmers from 13 clubs across Queensland and provided one of the final chances for athletes to secure qualifying times for the upcoming 2025 Hancock Prospecting Queensland Short Course Championships.
Many swimmers rose to the occasion, posting impressive results, smashing personal bests and taking home a haul of ribbons. A special mention goes to Celeste Orenshaw and Evie Doherty, who took on time trials at the end of a full day of racing and successfully met their goal times. Celeste nailed her 50m Butterfly, while Evie powered home in the 50m Breaststroke — a remarkable feat after a big day of competition.
Top PB performers on the day included Tiana Bell, Eloise Chegwidden, Harris and Tora Delac, Charlie Doherty, Liam Filewood, Roxanne Groom, Ruby Harland, Eric and Leo Mulliss, Dylan Reynolds, Indi Smith, Zach Trefz, and Caleb, Lily, and Zavier Woolston.
We would also like to celebrate Harry Chegwidden, Miller Eaves, Blaire Harland, Indigo Harland, and Faithlyn Trotter who achieved personal best times in every single one of their events — an incredible effort!
It was also a debut carnival for Lennox Wild and Faithlyn Trotter, and we commend them both on representing the Cannons with confidence and enthusiasm.
Finally, a heartfelt thank you goes out to all the families, volunteers, and supporters who contributed to the success of this event. Your time, effort, and enthusiasm are what make meets like this possible.
