The Australian winter sports community gathered in Melbourne to celebrate a special moment in Australian Sport, Jakara Anthony's golden performance at the 2022 Olympic Winter Games in Beijing, China.
Anthony became Australia's sixth Olympic Winter Champion after her barnstorming performance in Beijing, and the winter sport community joined Anthony's friends and family to celebrate the incredible achievement at a function at the Rialto in Melbourne.
Some of Anthony’s amazing performances over the season included:
On the night Anthony paid trouble to everyone involved in her journey, from her formative years to the champion winter athlete she is today, with speeches from Olympic Winter Institute of Australia (OWIA) Chairman Geoff Henke and CEO Geoff Lipshut, with Snow Australia CEO Michael Kennedy interviewing Anthony and her coach Peter McNiel.
The OWIA is very appreciative of the support from Buller Ski Lifts and the Grollo family for hosting the function at the Rialto.
