RobtheAggie 337 Posted October 12, 2021 #81 Share Posted October 12, 2021 The IBU recently held a Junior Camp in Pokljuka. Short individual Youth winners - Manon Gabriel (BEL) and Matija Legovic (CRO). Short Individual Junior winners - Enkhchimeg Davaadulam (MON)and Uros Lalovic (BHN). I know the focus was on smaller biathlon nations, but that is a cool looking winners group. Their success this summer might continue the ball rollling in their nations for further funding.

JonPhi 246 Posted October 16, 2021 #85 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Today was the second part of the French National Championships: In the women's event, Anais Bescond unsurprisingly prevails in an Olympic season. In the men's event Emilien Jacquelin celebrated a good Comeback, although there were weak shooting results especially in the men's event. Sprint Women 1. Anais Bescond (1) 2. Anais Chevalier-Bouchet (2) +15.8 3. Julia Simon (2) +24.9 4. Justine Braisaz-Bouchet (3) +28.8 5. Lou Jeanmonnot (0) +45.7 Sprint Men 1. Emilien Claude (0) 2. Quentin Fillon Maillet (2) +26.7 3.
