COOROY BOWLS
WHAT an exciting night on Thursday night in the High Rollers Challenge! Bottom of the rung team Cormorants had the top team JeLS fighting for their leader’s position only going down in the last two ends. Other top teams to face close games were 101s who drew with High Rollers and Royal Flush (who had replacement players) defeated TAG Team with the last bowl of the evening. Rob and Co also had a win over BAM. Kybong Kids, Eumundi Boys and Bushrangers also had wins.
The Business Bowlers had a good evening on Wednesday with CSR, Mutineers, SEC, Jacobson, Pages, Bonnells and Thunderbirds winning their games.
The very hot conditions on Tuesday didn’t deter many people. Winners Russell Butler and Kerry Knowles had an overall win of +16 points, one point more than Terence Charles, Roger Linklater and Julie Ainscough.
There will be no bowls this Tuesday due to Melbourne Cup. We will be all enjoying our lunch and having fun in the Hub.
