Notes: Readers of this site should be reasonably familiar with Naiomi, as she has featured in a few articles now. Having just returned from a whirlwind tour of the USA with the PAPA World Championships, and IFPA World Championships, she and partner Brett are frequent travellers and competitors across NSW, the country, and now internationally. Not only is Naiomi a keen competitor, the highest ranked female player in the country, and now the dual 2016 PAPA World Championship Split Flipper champion, but she is also one of the friendliest faces in Australian pinball. Always smiling, having a laugh, doing a jig, and forcing fellow competitors out of their social shells - who knew Rob Macauley could sing!
