The 2018 Australian Athletics Championships and nomination trials are the pinnacle event of the Australian Athletics Calendar, with a four-day event commencing on Thursday 15 February on the Gold Coast. This event also boasts as the Commonwealth Games nomination trials.
Christian qualified for both the 100m and 200m and competed against the best in the nation including Para-Olympians and whilst he didn’t get through to the finals he achieved a Personal Best (PB) in his 200m.
In March he competed at the Australian Junior Championships at Sydney Olympic Park.
Australia's 'next generation' of track and field talent was on full display in Sydney as more than 2000 junior athletes descended to compete at the famous Sydney Olympic Park Athletics track.
Christian qualified for both the 100m and 200m and competed against up and coming athletes in his para-athlete class and whilst he didn’t get through to the finals he achieved a PB in his 100m.
This is an outstanding achievement and we congratulate Christian on this. His goal is to qualify for the International Junior Athletics Championships next year.
