SA Biathlon National Championship. Curro Langebaan is proud of all their biathlon athletes who competed at the SA Biathlon National Championship this weekend in Bloemfontein. The championship took place at the Mangaung Athletic Stadium and the Stadium Swimming Pool.

Biathlon is a multisport discipline that involves running and swimming over various distances for the different age groups.These two separate disciplines take place at different times on the same day. All athletes will first run their event on the track and after ALL the running numbers have been completed all athletes will swim their events in either a 25m or 50m pool. Times are recorded for each athlete and points are then allocated according to the times recorded. The ideal will be to achieve at least 1000 points for the running discipline and 1000 points for the swimming discipline to then have a total of at least 2000 points.

A special congratulations to Kyle Snyders who is the South African Biathlon Champion for u/15 boys. Kyle was also chosen as the Junior Victor Ludorum for the event. What a tremendous achievement. These athletes spend hours training, come sunshine or rain. Curro Langebaan is so grateful that they were able to represent their school at such a prestige event.
