NZ team for Junior World Orienteering Champs change
The New Zealand team to compete at this year's junior world orienteering championships (JWOC) has had a change due to the withdrawl of Amber Morrison (Hawke's Bay) due to injury. The event is being held 8-13 July in Dubbo, NSW, Australia.
Morrison last year was the top placed kiwi at JWOC in Lithuania, obtaining two top-20 results. Morrisons withdrawl has meant her younger sister Kate has come into the team and a new reserve has been announced.
The team is:
Women: Tineke Berthelsen (Hamilton), Lizzie Ingham (Wellington), Greta Knarston (Counties Manukau), Kate Morrison (Hawke's Bay), Nicola Peat (Counties Manukau), Kate Rea (Counties Manukau). Reserve is Rachael Goodwin (Hawke's Bay).
Men: Riki Cambridge (Dunedin), Simon Jager (Auckland), Sam McNally (Rotorua), Andrew Peat (Counties Manukau), Thomas Reynolds (North West Auckland), Jack Vincent (Hawke's Bay). Reserve is Ciaran Murphy (Counties Manukau).
