A new format saw 36 teams filling the greens. These teams came from Taralga, Boorowa, Harden, Young, Tumut, Stockinbingal, Barmedman, Temora and Junee, as well as two Cootamundra clubs. The first two rounds of the competition determined in which division the team would play. Then four rounds competing for prizemoney in each division.
Matches were played over two sets of six ends, with a one end decider, if the sets were even.
Many matches were decided on the extra end, keeping interest in the match to the last bowl.
