It has been another big month of competitions in March with three state titles happening around Australia. The month started with the Paddy Pallin 2019 Tasmanian State Lead Titles followed by the Mammut 2019 QLD Youth State Lead Titles and then this past weekend was the Pirate Life 2019 SA State Lead Titles. We have continued to see representation from Victoria at all these events.

Mammut 2019 QLD Youth State Lead Titles
Queensland hosted their Youth State Lead Titles next on 9 – 10 March, 2019 at Urban Climb West End. For the second year, they have opted to split their Open and Youth state titles with their Open titles being held later in the year to cater for the change in the Nationals date. Again 4 Victorians made the trip north to compete:
- Ned Middlehurst: 2nd Junior Male
- Alyssa Schneider: 5th Youth A Female
- Maya Stusiuk: 1st Youth C Female
- Jamie Wong: 2nd Youth D Female
