ABOUT ROSIE

Growing up in country Victoria at the base of Australian ski resort Falls Creek, it was only natural that as soon as Rosie could walk, she was on skis. Developing a love for cross-country skiing from a young age, Rosie has continually impressed in competition and progressed in the sport quickly.

In 2022, Rosie won the U16 distance classic at the National Championships, a result she considers a career highlight. The following year, the 16-year-old won gold in the U16 girls distance event, silver in U16 girls sprint event and third in the U18 classic event at the 2023 Victorian Junior Championships.
