Rain delays cricket and cancels events
The ongoing wet weather which is playing havoc with sporting grounds has meant there hasn't even been a ball bowled in the local cricket competition which was expected to start last weekend.
Local spokesman, Phil Coggins, said it is disappointing and "I doubt if we will be playing this weekend as well."
The annual Boorowa Netball and Touch Football Carnival has also been cancelled.
