The inaugural “Fastest Man on Sand” beach event series concluded with Round 4 held at Mooloolaba on Sat 20th Feb.
Open to Surf Life Savers from around the world the Fastest Man on Sand attracts "THE BEST OF THE BEST ON THE BEACH" to contest their skills across eight age groups. The re-introduction of the Fastest Man on Sand as a four round series had been done through Surf Life Saving QLD to encourage members (and potential new members) to embrace the beach event/s side of Surf Sports competition.
There were approximately 650 Nipper members from U11 - U14 who competed in the morning on this day with competitors travelling to compete from the Gold Coast to as far north as Mackay, and then the U15-Open competing in the afternoon.Our local Dicky Beach Surf Club had approx 55 members competing with some great results throughout the day. The pointscore tally is accumulative over the four rounds, and Taron Najilepsy from U11 took out the title for U11 Male Sprint.
The Dicky Beach All Age Relay competitors also savoured victory with their committed training efforts paying off - by the third round they were sharing 1st place with Currumbin then took out the title in the 4th round with an impressive lead on the track.
4th round Winners for the All Age Relay from L to R: Douglas Simpson, Michael Gilliman, Taron Najilepsy, Adam Sciberas, Alex Hearne, Jared Bradicich, Cara Woolnough, Thomas Kidston.

All the kids had an awesome day with many great results, & thankfully the weather stayed fine enough not to grizzle!!
