Award presented at Bendigo
Ettalong Memorial Bowling Club's Aron Sherriff was named International Bowler of the Year in front of a capacity crowd at the Bendigo Town Hall during the 2013 Sandhurst Trustees Hall of Fame and Awards Night held on Saturday, April 27.
Sherriff's award followed a busy 12 months which saw him guide the men's fours to a gold medal at the 27-nation World Championships last December.
Sherriff, 27, also played an instrumental role in Australia's success on the world stage at the six-nation SA International Series in May, where he clinched a silver medal in the pairs and the green and gold's dominance over New Zealand at the Trans-Tasman test series in September.
Following his win, Sherriff skipped his fours team to win 34-10 against the Northern Territory to help the NSW men's contingent win the Alley Shield in the 2013 Australian Sides Championships held in Bendigo from April 29 to May 2.
