The most amazing year in our history. How about this for ‘Events” that shaped the way we play the game:
- Extreme heat plus ‘Catastrophic’ fire conditions over December (2019) to February (2020) caused a number of Rounds to be cancelled
- Drought caused cancellation of our Country Carnivals – Tamworth (U14s) & Taree (16s)
- Rounds & Semi Finals washed out (February)
- COVID-19 (March 2020 and ongoing) caused cancellation of Finals and Presentation days. It also changed the way the game is played due to social distancing.
