The Cobar and District Cricket Associationend of season presentations were held on Saturday night at the Services Club.

Rather than having winners from each individual competition, this season’s statistical awards were won by combining results from both the Twenty/20 and 40 Overs competitions which means most runs, wickets and catches were awarded from a combined tally of both competitions.

Nymagee were runners-up of the 40 Overs competition.

Jay Egan was the Player of the Year for the 40 Overs competition.
