Biathlon - 2024 Youth Olympics

Biathlon - 2024 Youth Olympics

At just 16, Ed's won a place in the Biathlon Australia rankings list which will be used for the naming of the Australian Youth Olympic Games Biathlon team to participate in the 4th Winter Youth Olympic Games to be held in Gangwon South Korea in January 2024.

As the official selection announcement of the successful 2024 WYOG biathlon athletes will be made by the AOC soon, we thought we'd start to raise some funds for Ed's now as we are approaching fewer than 70 days until the youth Olympiad starts. You know, funds for flights, skis, poles, pretzels. Fancy stuff like that. There isn't much time left.

We need funds and every bit helps, no matter how much or how little.

Thanks so much for reading and if there's anything Team Woodhouse-Bedak can do for you, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
