Our rookies performed well on 9 August in the zone playoff. Greg Wright and Mitch McAlister won one of their two matches and Greg Chester won both matches. Greg C went to Orange the next day to play in the semifinal but was unable to carry his form from the previous day into the match. Well done to all. The Ffll report is on the Canowindra Phoenix facebook page.
On Sunday a Major triple game was completed with Ben, Tony and Roger defeating Mitch, Tot and Crock. Mitch shot out of the gates leading 9/0 early. Crock was leading very well helping his team.
