Members of the WA Nationals side had a roll up and coaching sessions on Sunday 15th March followed by a Come and try day with Neville for all our Vision Impaired and Blind Bowlers on Monday 16th March. Thanks to ABBA (Australian Blind Bowlers Association)who organised and funded the event and supplied lunches.
