Claims to Fame: Winning A Grade All Events & A Grade Doubles at the NSW Country Championships at my previous home centre Tamworth 2 years in a row.

Favourite Bowling Moment: Going to the Northern NSW championships at Coffs Harbour with my team mate and winning 3 events each. Not a huge feat maybe, but we were pretty much we disliked at our home centre for whatever reason i dont know. But we beat all-comers including people from my home centre. It was extremely satisfying.

Favourite Bowling Moment 2: Bowling my highest game and series outside my home centre at the NSW State Titles in Liverpool. 235 game and 638 series.

Whew, i needed that venting moment
