Three junior athletes Rhys Rigoni, Bethany Illingworth and Kyla Green were selected to represent Victoria at the National Junior Championships at Homebush Stadium in Sydney. Rhys qualified for the Pole Vault, 200m Hurdles, Discus, Javelin, and Shot Put and Bethany for the 90m Hurdles and Pole Vault while Kyla qualified in the Pole Vault.
Rhys had a very good competition picking up a third place medal in the Pole Vault. Bethany unfortunately had to scratch from the hurdles due to continued quadriceps problems but did still manage to compete in the Pole Vault.
