Talk about travelling bowlers-what about Greg Brims and John Hrabak. Firstly they played in the Champion of Club Champion Pairs at Nowra, reaching the semi finals, going down to Cabramatta the eventual winners. Then on to Woolgoolga to play in the Club Challenge Gold Division. The Port City team defeated Woolgoolga in the morning, and Inverell East in the afternoon. They will now travel to Warilla to play in the semi finals (and hopefully the final) on the week end of December 6/7. Congratulations to all players.
