Waikanae claim prestigious senior champs title

It was a big weekend of racing at Gisborne's Midway Beach as athletes from the three local clubs tackled the annual Senior and Junior Championships.

For the first time in Gisborne's history, the championships were held over Waitangi weekend as back-to-back events.

The action started with the Juniors' sprint, beach flags and rescue events on Friday evening with further events leading into Saturday.

After a hard morning's racing, Midway emerged top of the club points table to take the 2017 Championship title after last year finishing in third.

From Saturday afternoon, and into Sunday, the attention turned to the Senior Championships as athletes battled it out for the prestigious Ralph Morse Shield.

Waikanae took the honour on 454 points, well clear of Midway in second place (26) and Wainui in third with 41.

It is the second year in a row that Waikanae has taken the title after last year prising it from Midway, putting a stop to their 16 year winning streak.

Surf Life Saving New Zealand Gisborne Club Support Manager Renee Wikaire says it was a great weekend of high intensity racing.

"Running back-to-back events meant surf lifesaving was the talk of the town for Waitangi weekend and we were spoilt with perfect conditions. There was a small wave for our Juniors and then the swell picked up nicely for the Seniors, she says.

"With many tightly contested races, the weekend was a great success thanks to the competitors, coaches, team managers, officials, parents, event safety crew involved. We're looking forward to the continued growth of the championships in the coming years."
