Ladies top their ladders

Noosa Heads
Noosa Heads lady bowlers have sides in Divisions 2 and 4 this year and, after last week’s matches, they top the ladder in both.
The Division 2s, under skips Pat Teale and Debbie Austin, took the maximum four points from their encounter with Kawana.
And Jan Burkitt and Jenny Bowie led their Division 4 teams to take two points from their Pelican Waters clash.
The ladies pennant games are played on Mondays when the weather has been mostly fine.
But the men’s matches are scheduled for Saturdays and the past two have been wet, wet, wet.
Only Division 3 could play last Saturday, under the roof at Mooloolaba, but the boys came home pointless, and cold.
Andrew Dunning and Danny Crameri, a couple of visitors from the Tewantin club, scored the highest winning margin on Tuesday’s mens pairs day.
The runners-up prize went to Neville Graham and Walter Horne. Wednesday ladies triples winners were Joan Laney, Judy Marsland and Beryl Nelson.
The normal Friday and Saturday games were washed away with the rain.
A reminder that next Monday 1 September sees the staging of the monthly Noosa 1500, an open pairs event, which has again attracted a capacity field.
Entry forms are now out for the club championship mixed fours.
