We are pleased to announce that the CAWA Board of Management has made the decision to commence preparations for the National Championships in 2021.
Lisa Farrelly has been appointed to the position of State Team Manager and she is looking forward to another exciting state team journey.
At this stage the Australian Calisthenics Federation has not made a final decision on whether the Championships will be held but have indicated that if they are, they will be held in Darwin in July 2021. In the event that the Nationals cannot be staged in person, there are also discussions taking place on using a virtual platform to host the competition. These decisions may not be finalised until December or January following responses from all of the states.
With this information in mind we will be commencing the process of appointing coaches and other personnel, running workshops for competitors and holding trials in the near future. The dates of these events may not be those currently listed on the website but we will get those details out as soon as possible.
State Team is an important part of the development of our sport and we encourage as many of our competitors to consider being a part of this wonderful experience. The higher level of training and the friendships made are just two benefits that our state team competitors enjoy.
It is the commitment of the Board that until a firm decision is made, there will be no expendables other than for the payment of coaches and hall hire. We will be able to give more details on the estimate of costs prior to trials.
Please feel free to email Lisa with any queries at [email protected]
We hope to see many of you at the workshops and trials.
