310 ACT school students last week competed in the Subaru ACT Southern NSW Interschools Snowsports Championships at Perisher. There were 44 schools entered in the competition across the ACT and Southern NSW, with just over half coming from Canberra. The schools from Jindabyne and Cooma have a big advantage as they get to ski one day a week with their school and able to to ski or ride every weekend in winter. Nether less, the Canberra schools made many team and individual podium finishes.
Radford Colleges team of 40 competitors, were the most successful ACT team with 11 team trophies won and 8 individual trophies. Ben Hood from Radford College came 1st in the Alpine and Skier X in Division 2 and his team placed 1st in both events as well.
Canberra Girls Grammar came away with 7 team trophies and 2 individual trophies. Canberra Grammar School scored 5 team places and 4 individuals were awarded Individual awards. Alia Moore from Telopea Park School placed 1st in the Skier X and Alpine in Division 2 and her fellow school competitors picked up 2 additional Individual trophies and 2 team places.
In the Primary Schools, Canberra Girls Grammar Junior and Canberra Grammar Junior came away with several team and individual places.
