Sunday\u2019s beautiful Autumn dawn morning was a specular start to a very frenetic GB School Biathlon meet of over 600 competitors at K2 in Crawley.<\/p>\n
CPS took a team of 23 children, the future of possibly the next generation of budding GB athletes to this competition. The team met under a whirl of excitement and nerves for a challenging day of sport ahead against so many top British national champions.<\/p>\n
The K2 meet is part of \u00a0a number of preliminary regional competitions held during the official qualifying window which is between 1st October and 1st December 2016.<\/p>\n
To enter, competitors need to submit run and swim times and are seeded alphabetically. If the children qualify for either of the British Championships, the heats are seeded in accordance with their times achieved at the preliminary competition.<\/p>\n\n
If the CPS \u00a0children qualify once all the preliminary competitions have completed, the organisers will put these results onto the rankings, both for\u00a0the British Modern Biathlon Championships in November and the British Schools’ Modern Biathlon Championships in March 2017 at Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n\n
