BETWEEN THE

GROYNESEDITION 2 10/7/2018

P r e s i d e n t ' s M e s s a g e  

Dear Members, 

Well done to our senior members that competed at the SLSWA

State Pool Rescue Championships on the weekend. Sorrento came

away with third place overall in WA. Please see below for full

results from the Sorrento team. 

The City of Joondalup is scheduled to replace the ceilings and

extractor fans  in the club changerooms. The proposed works are

set to commence on 23rd July 2018. The changerooms will be out

of commission for 2 weeks. Please use the public change rooms on

the left side of the club.

COMPETITION Good luck to our Junior and Masters Pool Rescue athletes who will race this

weekend, along with our seniors who will race the final two events of their senior

events - the Super and Medley relays.

Good luck everyone.

Our Seniors did team green proud this weekend!

Although small in numbers, Sorrento made up for it with some amazing results

and finished a strong fourth place with 138 points; finishing behind Trigg Island

(260 points) and Fremantle and North Cottesloe (tied on 167 points), and

finishing ahead if Mullaloo (116 points).

We didn't have the numbers to field teams this year in majority of our events, but

where we lacked in size, team green made up for this in the individual events.

Thanks to the parents who got behind the event as time keepers and to our

superstar volunteer Fiona Airey who was our club pool setter for the day.

Thanks also to our officials who again did themselves and our club proud.
