Gold Coast Recreation & Sport Inc Annual Athletics Championships

Sharky hit the track! Southport Sharks were proud to be part of the Gold Coast Recreation & Sport Inc Annual Athletics Championships, where young athletes with disabilities got the chance to compete, shine, and celebrate sport.

Yesterday, Southport Sharks proudly supported the Gold Coast Recreation & Sport Inc Annual Athletics Championships, an event that provides children living with disabilities the opportunity to compete at a competitive level. 

The day was filled with excitement and camaraderie, starting with a parade of all the participating schools and a torch-lighting ceremony to officially kick off the festivities. Sharky and his teammate Oliver (from Helensvale State School) delivered an impressive performance, finishing a close second in the first track race of the day. 

Thank you to Gold Coast Recreation & Sport Inc for hosting us for the fifth year.
