A national gold medal was the icing on the cake for Nash Mason, who also celebrated his birthday yesterday. His gold medal-winning performance has now made him an eligible contender to join the Australian team, the Skillaroos, to represent his country at the International Competition in Canada, 2009. Refrigeration sponsors, Lu-Ve Contardo, have also set up Nash with a trip to Nuremberg, Germany to visit the Chillventa Exhibition, the largest refrigeration and air-conditioning expo in the world. In the meantime, Nash’s skills will be available for demonstration among the 53 other national categories at the WorldSkills National Competition in Sydney this July.

The three intensive competition days included four project modules:

Task 1 – Air Conditioning Unit Installation
Task 2 – Refrigeration Fault Finding & Repair
Task 3 – Electrical Fault Finding
Task 4 – Refrigeration Cabinet System Installation

The national refrigeration competitors will be at the final day of the ARBS Exhibition today to demonstrate their skills before returning home.

Congratulations to all the National Refrigeration competitors:
