NSTS JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP 1996

This year's Junior Championship was sponsered by NSTS.  First price
consisted in a free trip to any European destination.  A very good
initiative by NSTS to provide Malta's Junior champion with a chance
to represent Malta in the European Junior Championships.  Well done NSTS!
