The week of online Farrer League presentations kicked off on Monday night with the unveiling of the Farrer League Team of the Year, in both football and netball.
Marrar dominated the football team on the back of their strong season, where they claimed the minor premiership with 15 wins from their 16 games.
Jack Reynolds, Zach Walgers, James Lawton, Nick Molkentin and Chris O'Donnell got the nod from the Bombers, as well as coach Shane Lenon.
North Wagga and Charles Sturt University made up the majority of the netball Team of the Year, with four players from each club claiming honours.
First-year CSU utility Max Findlay was named the Farrer League Rising Star.
Findlay, who moved from Barellan this year to study agricultural science, played mostly in a forward and midfield rotation, often playing above his size and impressing with his strong overhead mark and booming right foot.
Temora's Halle Derrick, who plays at either end of the court, was named the netball Rising Star.
Danny Graham, who coached the combined Coleambally-Barellan under 17 team this season, was named Football Coach of the Year.
CSU's Holly Judd was named Netball Coach of the Year, while Bushpigs president Cameron Humphries was named Volunteer of the Year.
North Wagga was awarded the club championship.
The vote count for the Gerald Clear and Marilyn Brooks Medals will be held online on Thursday night.
