This dynamic trio has competed together in the TdN for the past five consecutive editions, demonstrating their exceptional teamwork and commitment to excellence.

On the women’s side, Lillie Yiatrou and Kaitlyn Cummins will proudly represent Team Australia. In 2022, the women’s team finished 10th, and this year they aspire to reach even greater heights, showcasing their remarkable skills and determination.
