GEELONG GIANTS END 14-YEAR DROUGHT

The Geelong Giants triumphed in the U18 Junior Provincial Championships held at Sebastopol Bowls Club in Ballarat, ending a 14-year title drought.

Competing against 14 region squads from across Victoria, the Giants fielded two sides: Giants Blue and Giants Gold, with a total of 18 players representing the region. Giants Gold went undefeated in three sectional rounds, secured a semi-final win against the Northern Flyers, and clinched the championship by defeating Bendigo in the final.

Ocean Grove was well represented, with Herbie Clark and Ryan McCalman in Giants Blue and Mia O'Reilly and our adopted Grover Koby Cromie in Giants Gold. While Giants Blue showcased incredible potential despite their younger roster, they narrowly missed progressing to the semi-finals.

Congratulations to all Giants players for their outstanding performance and for bringing home the prestigious "Flapper Family Shield".
