National Sprint Kayak Championships

Daniel Hardwick Year 12 Kayak/Surf League Excellence student attended National Sprint Kayak championships 20-23 May at Adelaide. This was Daniel first year (of two) in the U18 age group. Following this championship Daniel has been selected for the Junior (U18) World  Championship Squad 2021. This is Daniel’s third consecutive year of being selected to represent Australia.

Unfortunately due to COVID -19 restrictions impacting on international competition and travel, national teams will disappointingly not be attending international competition in 2021.

This season Daniel has competed :-

  • QLD State Sprints Championships - Kawana
  • National Sprints Championships - Adelaide
  • QLD State SLS Championships - Tugun (individual ski)

Achieving podium results at all three events. Fantastic Daniel!
