Attendance for Week 12 was reduced to 27 competitors due to the June long weekend as many families took the opportunity to have a break away from the area.
Some excellent results from members who competed at the State Combined Independent School Cross Country Carnival in Sydney on Thursday. We are proud to acknowledge and Congratulate four Victory members who attend Nowra Anglican College, representing the South Coast Region.
The Silver Medal in the Boys 15yrs event was won by Joel Harlor. In the 10yrs girls event Annie Dziubinski was awarded the Bronze medal. Despite not receiving a medal 8yr old Rachael Clarke also ran an excellent race to finish 12th from over 100 competitors in the combined 8/9yrs event. Victory’s fourth representative, Rachael’s brother Jayden ran in the 11yr boys event and enjoyed the experience of competing at this high level of competition.
