Post school holiday biathlon activities have re-started at Newington Armory, Sydney Olympic Park. It’s been an active group of newcomers, development, Masters and Performance biathletes who have been training each week on their roller-skis and engaging in laser biathlon.

There has been some great progression from time on-snow, regarding accuracy in shooting, with many of our development athletes now shooting prone on prone targets as part of their practice sessions. The development athletes have also been working on their technique and fitness.

Our performance group have been working closely with coach Lucy Glanville to assess their base fitness through time-trials given the lack of on-snow events this year.

Our Masters are continuing to refine their technique so they become more efficient on their roller-skis to transition to efficiencies on snow. And our newcomers, are moving from their roller-blades to roller-skis!

It’s been a great return to dryland activities after the programs at Perisher and Hotham in the school holidays.
