Reflections on Past National Championships ~ Nathan Cottrell
Nathan Cottrell judged the National Championship from 1987 though 2001 with the exception of the 2000 running. He is also a past competitor. While we sat in my car at a road crossing at the 2012 National Championship, Nathan kindly recalled some of the more memorable performances he has seen.
Unfortunately, a quiet spot to conduct interviews is not easy to find while watching the National. Apologies for the poor quality of this recording.
