The Australian JWOC team has been settling into the European time zone with a training camp, before the competition in Slovakia starts in earnest next week. The terrain is classic limestone sinkhole so getting some practice on comparable areas has been really important for the team ahead of the races. The first competition event is the Sprint Final on Sunday 8th July, followed by the Long Distance final on Monday, the Middle Distance qualification on Wednesday and the final on Thursday, wrapping up with the Relays on Friday 13th. We have three team members from NSW – Kasimir Gregory (Northern Tablelands), Alex Massey (Newcastle) and Michele Dawson (Garingal) Follow their progress in their own words at http://ausjuniororienteering.blogspot.com.au/
