This group of wonderful local athletes has done our town proud competing with considerable success at the Special Olympics in Melbourne.
Aidan Roughly was the standout athlete claiming three gold medals, all in ten pin bowling.
He gained brilliant support from other team members too.
Overall, the team claimed a total of 70 medals which equates to 42 per cent of the total medal tally.
The team coach Rod Nugent deserves special praise.
Rod is a high profile athlete in his own right and has converted that knowledge into coaching.
We look forward to bringing you more success stories from the team in the future including their efforts at the World Summer Games in 2015.
