Our thanks go to Annette Seymour, Lesley Constable, Natham Constable and Ron Crompton for all of the organising, planning, time and effort that they put into making the trip possible, smooth running, comfortable and fun. They organised the competition aspects, travel, accommodation, meals, sightseeing and safety of all 29 travellers. In addition, Ron and Denis Wilson drove the buses to transport us around Hobart, to and from competition, many kms for sightseeing, dinners out and home safely. We really appreciate it all.
The bowlers competed in two series each of singles, doubles and teams, and six bowlers were members of the NSW State team as well (so that each bowler could win more than one medal in each event, and sometimes did!)
Hornsby Rockets members who also bowled for the NSW State Team:
Emma Crompton, Karina Peters, Jenny Jones, Tim WIlson, Warren Seymour and Candice Lundie
One for all and all for one!
The Mercure Hotel packed lunch for us on each competition day.
After seven busy days of competition (with some free days for rest, sightseeing, and two days for travel) a presentation dinner was held on Friday evening, and the following 20 medals were won by Hornsby Rockets members, much to their excitement:
