2022 Rookie of the Year
- Last Updated: Sunday, 08 January 2023 12:27
The Rookie of the Year Award is presented to a new orienteer with limited orienteering experience (up to two seasons) showing improvement in competition standard.
While Stephanie Nicholls (Garingal Orienteers) orienteered early in her life during her school days, she didn’t continue.
She returned in 2021 and started adult orienteering with intensity!
Stephanie topped Women’s Open B (moderate) in the 2022 NSW State League.
She also won the 2022 Metro League Individual Medal for Division 6.
Feeling prepared now to take on the challenge of more Hard courses in 2023, she has already competed in W50A in two sprint events.

Erika has competed in every Australian Championships and Easter 3-Day competition since her W10 debut in 2014 and was selected in the 2022 Australian Schools Honour Team in her first year as a senior girl.
