ASWGA Fleece Competition Results 2020-21


Congratulations to Carol & Allan Phillips of “Glen Stuart” Tasmania for their win in three categories of the ASWGA Fleece competition, the class 90s quality along with first place in the Tasmanian region and the big one, the “Grand Champion” Trophy for the best overall fleece sponsored by Australian Council of Wool Exporters & Processors.

Winners Allan & Carol Phillips

We feel very honoured to win the Grand champion Fleece award in the ASWGA Fleece competition this year, considering that the fleeces were drawn from many of the best superfine woolgrowers in Australia. It was fortunate that we had an excellent season here in Tasmania for growing wool. We would like to thank the sponsors Australian Council of Wool Exporters & Processors Inc, the judges, and everyone else who assisted in making this competition happen. Congratulations to all the other winners, and placegetters! Hopefully we can all enjoy some of the good wool prices on offer for superfine wool.
