Dear Biathlon Australia family,

The sun shone over some incredible displays of sportsmanship and courage at the biathlon event held at The King’s School yesterday, to mark the end of the biathlon and roller-ski training season, for Term 2.

Some of our newest rollerskiers braved two laser shoots and three laps (some after having completed only one or two roller-ski sessions – legends!).

Aspiring biathletes came together from the Newington Armory, Roseville, Wenona and King’s biathlon and roller-ski sessions. 

The course was ingeniously marked out with cones, chalk, garbage bins and milk crates, and a penalty loop created around a gigantic school bus, which had mysteriously appeared halfway through the season and never left. 

The presentation was preceded by plenty of pizza and prizes for all participants and parents.

Julia, Noah, Ava, Ally, TJ, Nym, Sarah and Mark
