ACHIEVEMENTS - District/etc Competition
District – A&DBA*/Group A
*A&DBA ran from 1946-2022, although there was no ‘pennant’ competition in 2022. Following the statewide unification of Men’s and Women’s Bowling organisations in mid-2021 “Districts” were disbanded and the administration of bowls reverted to Zone. However, with Zone 8 (NABC’s Zone) still being very large, pennant was conducted in 2023 along similar lines as “District” although the areas are now known as Groups (A-F); NABC being in Group A
