Both the Kooringal-Wagga and Wagga clubs will be well represented after strong performances from their athletes at the zone championships held late last year.
Regionals is a chance to qualify for state championships but it’s a serious step up, with athletes from across southern NSW competing, including the strong Wollongong and south coast regions.
It’s a once-in-30-year opportunity for Griffith to host the event and the club expects around 780 athletes to attend the two-day carnival.
