Congratulations to all winners of respective regions and quality classes.
There were sixty-plus fleeces entered in this year’s competition and the results were very close.
A huge thank you to our sponsor Bendigo Woollen Mill and The Australian Yarn Company for the grand trophy and to AWTA for arranging transport of fleeces for judging. We would also like to thank Roberts Ltd, Australian Wool Network, Schute Bell Badgery Lumby and Nutrien Wool for collection and transportation of the members fleeces.
A special thank you to the fleece committee and Ray Moroney and Bob Menzies, our foot soldiers. The actual judging is made easier with the organising, delivery and storage of fleeces and judging space made by Mark Hedley and staff of AWN, not only for ASWGA, but also the Zegna judging. It was a huge effort and greatly appreciated by the Association.
Finally, thank you to judges Greg Andrews of Schute Bell and Lachie Brown from Elders.
Funds raised from the sale of the wool entered in the competition will go back to the Association.
