Launch of STG Stingers ocean swimming group

The STG Stingers ocean swimming group was launched at the STG 2007/08 trophy night.

According to Coach Colin the goal of this ocean swimming group is to grow over the 2008/09 summer months and have STG Stinger representation at all the major NSW ocean swims. STG Stingers will also be running Stinger club championships with points being awarded based on the same model as STG Triathlon club championships. List of eligible races.

Coaches Shaun and and Colin invite anyone interested to come on down and join STG Stingers, currently Saturdays from 10:30 am and Tuesday evenings 6:30 pm. Meeting at Bondi Bathers SLSC right in the middle of Bondi Beach, anyone that can swim a continuous 1000m in the pool is eligible to partake.

Sessions are instructional, challenging but above all, truly enjoyable. After training we bask in the Bondi sunlight whilst drinking coffee and chatting about the sessions exploits.

Stay tuned for our new range of, swimmers, caps, T shirts and rash vests featuring the Stinger logo.
