Youth members please note: if you select ‘Yes’ to attend the Post-Tour in your online application, and your overall application to attend AJ2025 as a member of the Western Australian Contingent is approved, then your place on the Post-Tour is automatically confirmed.
Adult members please note: our optional Post-Tour is a youth-focused activity. For adult members, selecting ‘Yes’ to attend the Post-Tour in your online application indicates your interest in attending the Post-Tour; however, your Post-Tour place is not confirmed until advised by the Contingent Support Team. Should the number of adult applicants exceed the number of adults required to safely operate the Post-Tour, a selection process will be undertaken to select adult members for the Post-Tour.
