• Team B - Three athletes from the same school. One phase each (7 - 18 years) can be made from different age groups.

Caitlin and Ethan are planning on entering this event and we are keen to find out who else would like to go. We can plan some running and swimming training and time trials between now and then. I will send out more infomation as soon as it is available.
