Northern NSW and QLD Interschools Snowsport Championships 

During the second week of the school holidays, the Pymble Snowsports team travelled to Perisher to compete in the highly anticipated Northern NSW and QLD Interschools Snowsport Championships. The event brought together talented athletes from across NSW and Queensland, all eager to showcase their skills on the snow. 

In preparation for the championships, some students participated in the Pymble Snowsports camp, where they undertook training prior to the championships. Under the guidance of experienced coaches, our students developed their technique, built team spirit, and learned valuable strategies that would serve them well in competition. From navigating challenging weather conditions to practicing their starts and finishes, the camp provided the perfect opportunity for all athletes to prepare for the upcoming competition. 

The championship itself was a wonderful display of sportsmanship, resilience, and determination. Our Pymble skiers and snowboarders competed across a range of disciplines, including alpine, ski cross and snowboard GS and Cross and moguls, achieving several personal best times and podium finishes. The camaraderie amongst the team was evident, with students supporting one another and sharing in both the triumphs and challenges of race day.
