Hey everyone.
Many members of NBCC just competed in the first Brisbane competition of the year, Brisbane Summer 2025. So here’s a quick recap of everyone’s highlights in no particular order.
- Luke: We are going to skip his double PR in 3x3 first round and go straight to his double PR in second round, he got a 21.85 avg beating his PR in the previous round by 4 seconds!!! He also got a 20.21 single in the same avg. So close to that sub 20 single hopefully at the next comp.
- Asaph: We will go straight to 3x3Blindfolded where he got a double PR of 1:35.00 mean with a 1:02.98 single!!! Then in the final he got a 1:15.29 single placing him 3rd at the comp. Unreal, hopefully sub 1min at the next comp.
