played at the Carbrook Golf Club from 15 – 17 April and the Boys’ event
being played at Pacific Harbour Golf and Country Club from 16 – 19 April.

at repeating their good form in April. During the past four years, the
Girls’ Team has won the event three times (2008, 2009 and 2011). The
Queensland Boys’ Team will also be hoping for a home ground advantage
after finishing runner-up to New South Wales in 2010 and 2011.
