Happy New Year to you all. Last year was the inaugural running of the OBN Series and we hope you all enjoyed it. We learned a lot from all the different things we tried, some worked really well and others fell short. Last Year we randomly picked a number of existing sponsored competitions to be part of the series. This Year we would like to get submissions from sponsors to be part of the series qualifiers and for those sponsors to be more involved in their event in some way. We were already approached by a new sponsor at the grand final last year which is brilliant. If you would like your business/family name to be involved in the series please get in contact. Regards The OBN Series.
