SWIMMING North Coast members have achieved top results at the Australian Multi-Class Age Championships on the Gold Coast.
Members of swimming clubs from across the North Coast took on the best in Australia.
The Australian Multi-Class Age Championships is a competition for swimmers with a disability.
Swimmers are classified according to their type of disability, including physical, intellectual, vision impaired and swimming impaired, and are also classified according to the degree of disability.
Times are measured against the World Records for someone of the same level of disability and a numerical score is generated.
Six Swimming North Coast members competed, with Sebastian Webster from Stroud Seals the most successful.
The hearing-impaired swimmer won a bronze medal in the 16-18yrs 50m Breaststroke.
He also came 7th in the 50m Freestyle, 8th in the 100m Breaststroke, and 9th in the 100m Freestyle.
