The four athletes to be added to the OWI/AIS skeleton program for the 2006/07 season have been selected following training and competition in Calgary, Canada, over the past two weeks. Those to make the cut from the six woman squad are Lucy Chaffer, Renee McCabe, Teniele Richards and Ami Wallace. Three of the group – Chaffer, McCabe and Richards – come from a surf life saving background, while Wallace has come to the sport from track and field.
