Athletes and their families incur significant costs to compete in this competition. Along with the exorbitant cost of training and travel, this can wear heavily on our athletes and their families.

Our aim to raise enough money to lessen the financial burden placed on our athletes, so they are able to continue to compete in the highest level of Interschool competition within Australia.
