MILESTONE MOMENTS & FINALS AMBITIONS You’d think the final week of July couldn’t bring any more interest and intrigue to that which has been displayed across the Grace Martin Trophy and Bill Brackenbury Cups this past month. But that is just what we have. While some may already know if they will be taking to the field in finals, there are only a few who know where they will finally finish.
