District Athletics Report 2014

The District Athletics Carnival involving athletes from 11 independent secondary schools was held at the university athletics track in windy conditions this term.  GCCC was represented by a talented group of athletes that certainly made an impact over the two days of competition.

On both days we had some excellent results with top three placings across 31 separate events. Andrea Little put in a standout performance with the javelin and discus throws. In the process of taking out first place, she also broke the 16 years girls long standing records with a throw of 28.78m for javelin and 25.03m for discus. Ella Mickelson is also to be commended for breaking the 16 years girls triple jump record with a jump of 10.62m.

GCCC this year is able to boast district age champions in Joshua Pederson and Daniel O’Farrell. These two athletes were able to record successful performances over a variety of events throughout the day. A special mention should also be made for Andrea little who finished runner up, as well as Ella Mickelson and Jesse Snelling who both finished in third place behind the 16 years age champion.
