QLD U18 TRI-SERIES TEAM

Sixteen Under 18 players have been selected to represent Queensland in July. The annual Junior Test Series between QLD and NSW will be contested as a tri-series this year, with Victoria set to compete in the event.

Held at the Cabramatta Bowls Club, NSW from July 3-5, 2023, eight girls and eight boys from each State will compete in this multi-discipline event, which will be live streamed by Bowls NSW.

Congratulations to Lacey Gerick, Lilly Vardy, Trent Brehmer, Riley Gerick, Hayden Leslie and Travis Pearce who will make their debut for the Queensland Under 18 Team at this event.

Bowls Queensland Selection Co-ordinator Christina Pavlov was full of praise for those who made the team and would like to congratulate them all.

“It is exciting to see the depth of talent in our State and the commitment many districts, clubs and coaches have put into developing junior bowls in QLD,” she said. “The inclusion of Victoria this year, along with NSW, will provide strong competition for QLD.”

Following the tri-series, five girls and five boys will be selected to represent QLD in the Australian U18 Championships to be held in Perth on October 6-7, 2023.
