Balmoral Swim

This year's Balmoral Swim at Balmoral Beach is expected to attract over 500 competitors of all levels and ages. The swim, at arguably the best harbour beach in Sydney or even the world is ideal for those who are wary of ocean swells. The event starts at 10am with a one kilometre harbour swim, followed by a 250 metre swim for juniors team followed by a Team Relay challenge. The Team Relay is a great opportunity for families, sporting teams, friends, schools or corporate to join the fun. There is a prize in each category and a Trophy for the Corporate Relay. A 150 metre open Dash for Glory is also part of the program. It is a fund raiser for CCIA - Children's Cancer Institute Australia. CCIA are the only independent medical research Institute in Australia devoted to research into the causes, prevention and cure of childhood cancer. CCIA is affiliated with both the Sydney Children's Hospital and the University of NSW. The Institute employs more than 120 staff and students.
