Central Queensland's Olympic Medal Haul

The Athens Olympic Games have been pretty good for Central Queensland. No doubt about it. With Rockhampton’s Jamie Dwyer & Mark Knowles winning gold with the Kookaburras in Hockey, Gladstone’s Amanda Doman picking up silver for softball, and Anna Mears collecting a gold and a bronze in seperate cycling events - Central Queensland has collected:

  • 2 Gold
  • 1 Silver
  • 1 Bronze

If we competed as a nation oursleves, we’d have finished in 36th position - better than Argentina, South Africa, Switzerland, Israel, Ireland, Mexico and India, just to name a few.

If you’re curious, check the full table and see for yourself.

Fantastic!
