In Sydney, the Masters Program commenced, regular laser biathlon became possible at Tempe Netball Courts , roller-ski sessions commenced before school, the inaugural Laser Biathlon Summer Series at Sydney Olympic Park was held together with a record number of Juniors and their parents taking the Firearms Safety test/Safe Shooting sessions to obtain their Minors Permits/Firearms Licences.
In regional NSW, regular roller-skiing and laser biathlon sessions commenced in the Southern Highlands and following on from Jindabyne's on-snow laser biathlon success, a training and development session was held in Jindabyne.
Collarborate development sessions were held between Biathlon ACT and our Victorian partners, East Australian Biathlon Club (EABC) and East Gippsland Biathlon Club (EGBC) as we look to grow biathlon across the east coast of Australia.
The Biathlon Schools Committee held their first meeting for 2019 to recap on last year’s highly successful biathlon Junior Series School's event and to discuss the 2019 Junior Series event to be held at the Perisher Biathlon Range on 19 August 2019.
