“The weather at the Gold Coast was predominantly sunny and warm, with some days being really hot. Most afternoons, there were windy conditions which made the games a bit more challenging.
“Overall, we didn’t do as well as we thought we would, especially the men’s team. None of the four men’s disciplines were able to make it out of their respective groups. The men finished 13th overall with the women finishing seventh overall out of 44 countries that took part,” Ritmuller said.
