Point Leo Swim Classic

The Flinders Hotel Point Leo Swim Classic is one of the Premier events on the Open Water Swim calendar. It is held annually on Boxing Day over a distance of 1200 metres.

Events

Balnarring & District Community Bank 5 km Challenge

Held over the same course as the Point Leo Swim Classic, swimmers will complete 4 laps to finish the Balnarring & District Community Bank 5 km Challenge. A cutoff time of 2 hours will be enforced (any remaining swimmers will be pulled from the water). There will be one leg in the swim that will be up to 600 metres long, depending on the conditions on the day. Entries for the Balnarring & District Community Bank 5 km Challenge will be capped at 100 swimmers and consists of only two categories: Open female and male.

SWIMMING VICTORIA MEMBERS – 5 km open water swim qualifying event

Note, the Balnarring & District Community Bank 5 km Challenge will be a timed qualifying event for Swimming Victoria members. Please make sure to enter your Swimming Victoria membership number upon registering for the swim to be eligible to receive a qualifying time. Swimming Victoria Members will not be allowed to register for the qualifying event on the day; they must enter online to be eligible to receive a qualifying time.

Nipper & Novice Swims

This year the Nipper and Novice Swims will involve a 400m ocean swim. Set to encourage nippers and patrons who are not yet confident enough to tackle the 1200m swim, the Nipper and Novice swims make for a great starting point in open water swimming. Male and female placegetters of the Nipper and Novice swims will receive a medal in each age group. Nipper age group categories are 8-U10, U12 and U14 year olds. Novice swim is for swimmers 14 – 70+.

Honeysuckle 4km Beach Run

The most exciting beach run held over summer is back again! The Honeysuckle Beach Run is an enthralling 4km race starting from the Point Leo SLSC clubhouse, heading towards Crunchy Point where competitors turn around to come back past the clubhouse and head towards Honeysuckle Point, where once again they will turn to finish in front of the clubhouse and hundreds of supporters! Male and female placegetters will receive a medal in each age category. Honeysuckle Beach Run age group categories are Nipper 8-U12, Junior U16 and Open 16+.

Flinders Hotel Point Leo Swim Classic

The Point Leo Swim Classic is a 1200 metre ocean swim. There will be one leg in the swim that will be up to 600 metres long, depending on the conditions on the day. All male and female placegetters will receive a medallion in each category.
