The Randwick Botany team of 23 kids held its own against all clubs and looking at all our competitors this year I am sure the kids and club will continue to prosper and again be the No:1 centre in NSW again. It was amazing to see the talent in our younger kids and them having the opportunity to experience their first State Titles.
