16 Glenorchy Gazette March 2021 Sport Arielle Cannell throws down the hammer YOUNG Glenorchy local Arielle Cannell has only been doing hammer throw for about a year, but has already had some outstanding results. Arielle, now 13 years old, broke the Athletics Tasmania record for under 14 when she was 12 by throwing 49.14 metres – three metres further than the previous record.

Arielle said she was ecstatic to hold the current record for her age group. “I couldn’t stop smiling, it was so much fun,” she said. Arielle is a third generation member of the Eastern Suburbs Athletics Club and said she was enjoying competing in the hammer throw.
