G100 Team

Welcome to the Lyall Bay Surf and Lifesaving Club's Gallpoli100 Team page.

In August 2010 we have a team of 12 heading to Turkey with 4 Australian teams to introduce surf lifesaving and surf boat racing to the Turkish people.

From this blog we will introduce you (friends, family and sponsors) to the team and keep you updated on what we have been doing and when we arrive in Turkey how things are going.

The final month

It has really started to sink in how soon we are leaving for Turkey. It is now under 1 month until we leave. What has made this real particularly are learning the Haka last week, going out to a team dinner at Cafe Istanbul, and today receiving our tickets for the Emirates flights to Turkey and back.

Training has been going great, the boat is feeling really good with the guys in it, all our swimming is coming along and the quiz night was a complete success, thanks to all who came, especially to Catherine for organising it.

The next step will be our team uniforms arriving in the next few weeks.

Just a reminder to everyone Lyall Bay Surf and Life Saving Club is having a centenary party and farewell for the Gallipoli team at the Feathers Bar on Featherston Street on Saturday 14th August, if you are interested in coming, let Tanya Turchie know, or comment on this post.

Thanks,
Arie (on behalf of the Gallipoli 100 team).
