The athletes who placed first or second in each event progress to the state championships, to be held in Homebush next month.
Those progressing to state, along with the results, will be printed next week.
A special thankyou goes to our club officials and parent helpers who worked on the grounds, all who helped transport our large and heavy cabanas to and from Wagga Wagga.
We would also like to thank the parents who support their children by travelling the distance to make competing possible for our athletes.
Competition continues with state multis being held in Orange this year on March 2 and 3, and state championships in Homebush wrapping up the season on March 22, 23 and 24.
Presentations will be held at Bomaderry Bowling Club on Sunday, April 7.
