LEADERBOARD UPDATE | Following last weekend's action at the top of the South, Malcolm has now updated the NOL table.
MEN | With the first 6 races complete, of which 3 will count, Matt has maximum points (300) in the Men. Felix holds a narrow second place ahead of Zefa by 0.6 points, with Tane and Aaron representing the older elites in the next two places. Joseph, having missed both LW and last weekend has two wins but no third counting score.
WOMEN | Lizzie has the maximum at this stage. Eight of the next 9 places are held by juniors with Katherine, Kaia and Anna the next three ahead of Sara, the only other genuine 21, apart from Lizzie, in the top 10.
