ENTRIES NOW OPEN!
Swim Queensland is a brand new event and will launch World Series Swims on Saturday October 24, 2015.
Every year, the event will travel to a different Queensland beach to offer a fresh, new challenge. In 2015, Swim Queensland will be held at Mooloolaba, one of the Sunshine Coast’s most popular beaches.
For some, open water swimming can be a daunting concept. So, they’ve designed a safe, achievable course with a range of distances – it’s as close to a pool lane as you’ll get in the ocean.
They will have events for every ability, from kids and beginners through to competitive swimmers and triathletes in training. Choose a distance, start training and kickstart your summer!
THE EVENTS
> Marathon Distance (3.8km)
> Long Course (2.0km)
> Short Course (1.0km)
Junior Giants (300m & 1.0km)
The Junior Giants Series is a great new opportunity for kids aged 8 – 16 years to compete with other swimmers their own age. They will have a short & long course to choose from at every location where all swimmers can enjoy the thrill of a beach sprint finish.
Events at Mooloolaba include:
•300m Kids Dash (8 yrs to 16 yrs)
•1000m Junior Giants (10 yrs to 16 yrs)
Family and friends are encouraged to share the experience and swim the course alongside the kids in the 300m Dash.
The 1000m event will use the same course format as the 1000m Short Course event.
Every participant receives a free event t-shirt and finishers certificate.
