NARROMINE CHOSEN TO HOST WORLD GLIDING CHAMPIONSHIPS IN 2023
THE WORLD GLIDING CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR STANDARD, 15 METER AND CLUB CLASS ARE AT NARROMINE AUSTRALIA IN NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2023
The IGC has agreed that the Standard Class, 15m Class and Club Class World Gliding Championships will now be held at Narromine NSW Australia in November/December 2023, which makes timing more convenient for International teams to ship gliders to Narromine and fits in better with European holidays.
The soaring conditions in Narromine are excellent at that time of year.
Want to hire an Australian based glider rather than ship your own?
Just click on this link to go to the WGC2023 website and select GLIDER HIRE from the menu. You can select from the gliders on display or request a specific glider to search for.
AusGlide - Pre-Worlds Event:
This pre-cursor event will be a two week Australian Nationals and a PRE-WORLDS event for Standard Class, 15m Class and Club Class.
AusGlide will run from Sunday 27 November 2022 through to Saturday 10 December 2022.

*****
Narromine was the venue for the 2015 Junior World Championship, which was very successful, flying on 10 out of a possible 11 contest days.
It was the venue where Australian glider pilot Matthew Scutter became World Champion in Standard Class.
Narromine Gliding Club is honoured to be selected by the IGC and we look forward to hosting an amazing gliding competition.
If you would like to be a part of the organisation and running of this World Championship Competition please go to the Contact Us page and tell us about yourself and how you can help.
