22.01.2022 The team have arrived at the presentation dinner for this year's challenge. Three days of very intensive road rescue challenges have come to an end for our VICSES South Barwon team. Thousands of kilometres of travel and many hours of blood, sweet and sometimes tears. Thankyou New Zealand and to you all back home for the support.

17.01.2022 The Controlled event (2 patients) was first up for the team. An airbag lift was completed to release the trapped arm of the driver. The team had just completed an improvised roof removal as time was called.

12.01.2022 A new year, and a bunch of new faces... Training is well underway for the team ahead of the Australasian Road Rescue Challenge in July.
11.01.2022 With the Australasian Road Rescue Challenge less than two weeks away training scenarios have been really testing the team. Here are some photos from our weekend training - you can even see the lengths our ‘casualty’ has gone to to make the scenarios as realistic as possible.
09.01.2022 The weather looked dodgy early this morning...it didn't disappoint!!
09.01.2022 Not a bad way to start the day in Hamilton. Up at the crack of dawn today for our final run. Photos to follow.
08.01.2022 The timetable is in... The team has an extrication event on each day, in addition to two Trauma Challenge events and three workshops. It’s going to be a busy few days!
08.01.2022 Today's learning symposium included heavy vehicle familiarisation and stabilisation, extrication techniques and the dissection of hearts and lungs to better understand how they function. A very interesting day! We start the competition tomorrow with 2 events - we'll let you know how we go!!
04.01.2022 South Barwon early morning workshops in Hamilton New Zealand. Entrapped release techniques along with a vehicle underide scenario.
04.01.2022 Well that was chilly... A great training session for the team tonight as the fog rolled in. Challenging stabilisation and a big airbag lift were successfully managed to remove our unfortunate ‘casualty’ who ended up trapped under the car on a bike. The ‘driver’ of the car was also safely extricated after being suspended in the seatbelt.... Great job team - I hope you’ve all thawed out!
02.01.2022 Busy day 1 of the challenge - 2 very tricky scenarios completed. Lots of sweat and lots of feedback from our assessors. Next extrication event isn't until Sunday. Saturday is workshop and trauma challenge day for the team!
02.01.2022 First event to kick off the competition is Trauma Challenge. Well done Tamieka & Lisa!
01.01.2022 Trauma scenarios were today's focus. A couple of great scenarios well managed by our team.
