Winter Championships – open (Southbank)

Winter Championships – Southbank 2006

Finals: Sun 13 August 2006

Congratulations to the UQCC Canoe Polo team who won the open division of the Queensland Canoeing Canoe Polo Winter Championships at Southbank.


The Uni team performed strongly over the day, winning their spot in the final.

In the final, the Uni established an early lead over their opposition, but it was not to last. In an exciting finish, the score was levelled at 3 all – with only minutes remaining.


A final uni goal sealed the championship. This was the third year running that a UQCC team has won.


The UQCC team

Thanks go to all the participants from Ipswich District Canoe Club, the Centenary Canoeing club, and the Broken Paddle Canoe Club (Boonah) (many of whom travelled long distances) for making the competition a success and a lot of fun. Thanks are very much due to Rachel Thomas and Queensland Canoeing for their efforts in organising a really enjoyable championship.
