After winning both the Race and Dual events at the 2025 Auckland Secondary Schools Ski Championships at Snowplanet, Georgia Marshall was determined to repeat the feat despite carrying an ACL knee strain sustained when she was struck by a snowboarder while changing from her race skis to training skis after her first run at the Australia New Zealand Cup, Australasia’s premier alpine skiing competition. Still feeling tentative in her opening event at the Auckland Championships, the Slalom Race, Marshall narrowly lost to Georgie Wilson of King’s College in the Senior Girls final. Determined to respond strongly in the Dual event, Marshall raced with composure and precision through the elimination rounds to secure her place in the knockout final. There, she faced long-time rival Chloe Pratt of Epsom Girls Grammar School.
A slow start handed Pratt an early advantage. Although Marshall steadily closed the gap throughout the race, she was unable to regain the lead and ultimately finished with the silver medal in the Senior Girls Dual event.
