Nicola Blatchford (Newcastle) and Michele Dawson (Garingal) have both been selected for the Australian team to compete at JWOC 2013 in the Czech Republic. This will be Michele's second trip to Europe to compete in this competition, and she is hoping to improve on last year's solid opening performance. Nicola will be on the team for the first time, having missed out due to injury last year. It is a tremendous achievement to have two young elites from NSW on the JWOC team and is testament to their hard work and the support of their managers and coaches.
