The KAA President (Simon Burennatu) and Assistant Secretary (Tierata Taukaban) left Tarawa on Friday with two of the Senior athletes.
Toom Annaua (sprinter) completed a treble of victories (100m., 200m., 400m.) in the National Championships on the day before he left. Greese Tauiaong, travelling as a hurdler, was the winner of the National Championships 800m.
We hope they will all benefit from the experience with a view to the South Pacific Mini Games in Palau in July.
UP-DATE 21/01/06.
We did not make it to the Mini Games - visa trouble !
In the Micronesia Championships in Saipan in December 2005, Toom broke the National Records for 200m. and 400m. and helped to set a new National Record in the 4 x 100m. Relay. He achieved silver medals in the 400m. and Relay.
