Great competition on Saturday. Some strong performances put in by many with climbers experiencing success fromm Canberra, Tasmania, Victoria and New South Wales. A number of climbers have made initial qualification for the World Youth team by virtue of a top three finish and now we wait for the confirmed squad in two weeks. A reminder applications for the 4th place in lead and speed categories closes in two weeks (emails to be sent directly to our President Rob Le Breton).
