NSW will have 42 teams competing in the Australian relay championships at the national titles in the ACT next month.
The relays are the last event of the 9-day carnival and highly anticipated by all participants for their collegial atmosphere.
NSW oozes class and talent in every age class, none moreso than in W20A where we have two JWOC representatives in Nicola Blatchford and Michele Dawson. It's a similar story in M21E with our "Three Muskteers" of Dave Meyer, Matt Parton and Rob Preston.
In Tasmania last year, NSW won the Xanthorrhea Trophy for interstate competition based on results of the Australian Relay Championships, and are athletes determined to retain it amid fierce competition.

The NSW junior squad (pictured) looked great in their new gear, presented to them at last weekend's State League double header in Newcastle. Selectors have finalised the junior squad, naming Lawrence Jones (senior boys) and Hugh Gingell (junior boys) as reserves.
