Fred Eather took out the Youth C male (born 2008/2009) competition to claim his spot in the NSW team and will be joined by Nikala Murray.
Murray did enough to gain selection after ranking fourth from NSW in the Youth A female (born 2004/2005) competition.

In total, six representatives from Tamworth finished in the top 10 of their categories at the titles at the Sydney Indoor Climbing Gym.
Chris Eather from Freestyle Bouldering Gym, where the representatives train, was happy with how the team performed.
"Everyone did really well," Eather said.
"Everyone is happy with how they went and that's most the important thing.
"There's a massive number of people engaged in the sport, so you never know what to expect, especially so because we had a disrupted year."
The disrupted year meant the Tamworth team had an altered lead-up.
Normally they would have three or four months of dedicated training for an event like the state titles but they were only able to fit one month of training in this year.
Everyone is happy with how they went and that's most the important thing.
