Polocrosse Champions return home

6/11/2008 7:22:00 AM
Local Polocrosse riders returned home last week victorious after a very successful outing at the National Polocrosse Championships held recently at the State Equestrian Centre at Brigadoon, in the Upper Swan area of Western Australia.

Jon Weston represented NSW with Kevin Bradford, of the Harden Polocrosse Club, in the Veterans over 50’s Open side, beating WA in the Final. John’s sons Will and Todd were members of the victorious Open Men’s side, beating Queensland in the final. Todd and his horse, Storm, were presented with the coveted best number one trophy. Jon’s sister, Donna, was the assistant coach of the Women’s side which were runners up to WA. Her son, Ben was a member of the Open Mixed side, which were runners up to WA also. All of these players are members of the Jugiong Polocrosse Club.

Kevin Bradford said that it was a fantastic experience although it was a very long trip across the Nullarbor. Kevin also said that fuel prices along the Nullarbor, just the other side of Border Village topped $2.10 and the lowest was in South Australia at $1.57.

The trip back was all the sweeter due to the success the NSW teams, making it into all of the seven finals of the competition and winning four of

them. Local Polocrosse riders returned home last week victorious after a very successful outing at the National Polocrosse Championships held recently at the State Equestrian Centre at Brigadoon, in the Upper Swan area of Western Australia.
