Congratulations to Kyra Spence and Roxanne Albertyn for their incredible achievements, truly solidifying themselves as some of our next generation champions!
Kyra Spence has capped off a remarkable season with her selection in the U15 All Australian Schools AFL team at the recent National Schools Championship in Brisbane. Approaching the weeklong carnival with a positive attitude and a carefree spirit, Kyra’s talent and determination shone through! This achievement adds to an impressive representative year, which also saw her earn a spot in the Gold Coast Suns extended training squad. Inspired by fellow Varsity Viking Alumni Sienna McMullen, Nyalli Milne and Havanna Harris, Kyra now sets her sights on following in their footsteps and one day being drafted into the AFLW!
Roxanne Albertyn continues to shine in the pool, with her outstanding results putting her firmly on track for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games! Claiming multiple gold medals at the Australian School Sport National Titles, Roxanne has once again backed up last year’s performances and is proving to get stronger and stronger each season. Roxanne brought home 3 gold medals (100m freestyle, 4x50m medley relay, 4x50m freestyle relay), silver in the 50m freestyle and bronze in the 4x100m freestyle relay. This incredible haul follows her success earlier in the year at the National Age Group Championships for Swimming.
