“I’m very happy, really happy to hear French Kiss and I are confirmed for WEG. There is a lot going right for us at the moment. We have three more competitions between now and WEG” said Hocking.

“French is obviously young, in her second year of competition - but she is such a trier, she has a good head and is always learning - always getting more consistent.

Her way of going helps my way of going, because I trust her, I can count on her to try her best,” he said.

Congratulations to all athletes on their selection and best of luck with the important final preparations over the coming months in the lead up to WEG.
