Hornsby Rockets hosted the annual Hornsby Invitational on the 5th and 6th of April and we had a fantastic turnout.
Five clubs (including the Rockets) and 1 Independent competed (including Hornsby)
On Saturday the 5th, there were seventy-two bowlers competing in the doubles. HUGE turnout. Thanks to all the clubs.
Collectively the Rockets won 56 medals and 3 trophies
Congratulations to the Illawarra Star Strikers who were Club Champions.
