Charlie Boswood, Jacob Cartwright and Stephanie Locke are at The Nationals Under-18 Championships — and featuring at such prestigious events is becoming a regular fixture for them.

The action on the greens began on Monday, October 5.

Boswood and Cartwright are flying the flag for Victoria in triples and fours.

Triples will begin against the ACT — the boys having already rolled into two easy fours wins over NSW and Tasmania.

Locke is in the same two events on the girls’ side.

She’s notched a round one triples win against Queensland, with NSW being Victoria’s first fours opponent.

Ky talent is also in the seniors events, with prodigy Olivia Cartwright ready to show off her soft touch on the greens for Victoria’s open women’s side.

She’ll begin play from October 15.

All results reported above are at the time of writing, with some matches still in the process of being played.
