Noosa Heads
It was a busy final week of men’s pennant competition for Noosa Heads bowlers. On Saturday the Div.1 side had a satisfying win over old rivals Tewantin, but went down to Kawana on Sunday afternoon.

Div.6 played Pelican Waters twice on the weekend but lost both home and away encounters.
Brian Ford and Andrew McCall took the Tuesday pairs prize over Geoff Lewis and Ric McDonald.
Ladies
Pairs on Wednesday saw a win to Carol Studley and Julie Boyer, with the next highest margin posted by Sophie Gale and Phyl Bolton.

More players are being sought for the annual Laguna Ladies All-Star fours, to be played on Thursday 2 October. Bowlers should have won a club championship at some time. This event is quite famous for the great array of exotic desserts provided, and consumed, by the bowlers who come from all over the coast. – The Chalker
