Give Multisport Gold YOUR 5 Star Review |
| |
|
Google reviews are such a vital part of Google search rankings and ultimately making more people aware of how awesome we are! If you have a few moments, your positive comments would be greatly appreciated, however, even just giving Multisport Gold a big fat 5 STAR RATING would be amazing.
Thanks Team! |

Multisport Gold Christmas Party & Celebration |
| |
|
SUNDAY 19TH DECEMBER 2021
Celebrating 10 years of Multisport Gold and another incredible year for the Squad, was always going to be an outstanding morning for us all! Starting the morning with our team relays, covering the Paradise Point parkrun course & a total of 25km per team...with a few little extra fun bits at the end for some laughs! How great was it to see everyone with their Team Party Hats running up & down the Esplanade.....so many great memories! Congrats to the Yellow team on your win & your vouchers to Gold Coast Physio & Sports Health for your massage's :-)
A huge shout out to Dorian from Springbok foods for once again the delicious bbq he put on for us. Thankyou! And to our amazing friends at Frigg for providing us with another year of sensational catering with great variety for us all to devour!
With a relaxed & social setting, the 2021 award winners were announced. This year we recognized outstanding efforts from Mary & Eiji, Erin & Dave, Alan & Kahori. As well as our 10 year Foundation Athletes & our 5 year legends.
Of course, the major awards are always the most exciting....and we were so proud to award Kath our Athletes Athlete for 20221. An award voted by YOU, and a much deserving winner too! She joins a very special group of MSGold athletes. Congratulations on your incredible year, we are all in awe & inspired by all you do.
Being out 10th year, we had a new Award to celebrate this milestone. This Squad status may not be awarded yearly, but when members of MSGold fulfil the criteria & are worthy of having their name engraved for all to see on this very prestigious trophy. To Jason Gearing, we Congratulate you as our 1st ever, Honorary Life Member of Multisport Gold. |

This week, correspondence was received from TQ and Qld Govt in relation to the easing of Covid-19  restrictions as we continue towards a full return to play.
The sports of swim-bike-run, and our training venue of Coomera Aquatic Centre run by Rackleys swimming, have NO restrictions in place, therefore, any unvaccinated athletes are still able to attend sessions.
HOWEVER. As a coach, I do have a duty of care for all of our athletes, both vaccinated, and in particular, those who remain unvaccinated.
For those unvaccinated athletes, to protect yourself against Covid-19, it is recommended you maintain your social distancing at ALL times.
If you are unwell, with any flu-like symptoms at all, it is advised you get tested immediately & remain in iso until you receive your test results.
We still must be vigilant when Checking In at each session with the QR code. It is advised that you have your vaccination certificate linked.
Those UNvaccinated athletes, please do not be offended, but it would be appreciated if you could advise me of your current status. This will assist in my duty of care for all squad athletes. This information will not be shared.
We will still be having our group coffee rides, post swimming coffee etc, as this is part of our culture and social enjoyment as a team. There will be restrictions in place for those unvaccinated athletes at most cafes and venues as you are well aware. Please do not be offended if we stop for coffee at venues you are not permitted.
The easing of restrictions are made possible because so many Queenslanders have made the choice to get vaccinated. Getting vaccinated is not just about protecting yourself, it’s about protecting those around you.

Multisport Gold parkrun on Tour N# 5 will see us venture to a new play ground for some of us, Varsity Lakes. The course is mainly flat, which means it will be fast! Running with the beautiful Lake Orr as the backdrop will make for a really picturesque course.
With so many weekends in December booked up with races & Events, we will leap forward into 2022 and kick off our Tour Series with something new & exciting!
For those who are keen for a post run recovery swim, we will head to Miami Aquatic Centre. Of course, after training we will head for coffee & breakfast
