U11-14s MAROOCHYDORE CARNIVAL

U11-14s Maroochydoore carnival held in horrendous conditions on Saturday 20th November.

Sunny conditions for GCCT were replaced by wind, rain and shivering bodies. With only 4 events on the program, the U11 & U12s Cameron and Iron were cancelled which enabled some families to retreat home early. The short water courses and lack of events was not a true reflection of the pointscore.

BMD Northcliffe finished second with 116 points, with the home club winning the pointscore with 159 points and Burleigh third with 95 points.
