TBA National Disability Championships 2011

The National Disability Championships were held in Adelaide 4th - 10th June.  Fifteen Hornsby Rockets bowlers and ten carers travelled to Adelaide for a busy week of bowling.  We'll bring you more photos as they come in. Congratulations to the bowlers who all participated in multiple events, and did their club proud.  Medals were won in fifteen events!

Karina Peters competed in the Interstate Challenge, for NSW, which was placed third.

Our thanks to the carers who went along to support the team members, and those who ran Saturday bowling for the other Hornsby Rockets on Saturday 5th.
