The 2025 National Main Tapping Competition was proudly hosted in mid-November at the Reece Civil + Viadux Tullamarine Centre in Victoria, with our national sponsors ensuring a fantastic event.
The contest was fierce, but TasWater’s Dale and Nathan emerged victorious, completing their tap in an impressive 1 minute 27 seconds. Hot on their heels were Dan and Tom from City of Gold Coast—the 2024 champions—finishing with a strong time of 1 minute 40 seconds.
This competition continues to raise awareness of the vital work carried out across the water industry, while celebrating skill, teamwork, and community spirit.
Looking ahead, we are excited to propose a trans-Tasman showdown, with our national champions set to face the winners of the Water Industry Operations Group Competition in New Zealand.
We extend our gratitude to all state representatives who competed, highlighting the dedication of network operators who provide essential water services 24/7:
- Barwon Water (Victoria): Liam & Jezza
- MidCoast Council (NSW): Dean & Mark
- Water Corporation (WA): Justin & Cullen
