Women’s bowls teams from all over the Central Coast and as far away as Windsor converged on Bateau Bay Bowling Club on Monday, August 19, to compete in Creighton’s Triples @The Bay.
This annual event, sponsored by Creighton’s Funeral Service, attracts some of the best women bowlers all keen to share in the very attractive prizemoney.
The format of play was two bowl triples played over three games of 13 ends each game, with the winners determined by wins, ends and margins.
To even things out each game was played on a different green with one game played on a synthetic surface under the magnificent Stingray Dome and the other two on different grass surfaces.
On their arrival for the day, players were treated to a morning tea consisting of a delicious selection of homemade cakes, slices and savouries.
Players played two games during the morning before lunch and then finishing the day playing their vital match winning final game.
Competition was highly competitive, and the Ettalong Club showed the depth of their talent in women’s bowls by winning the major prize and filling four of the top five.
The Windsor visitors didn’t go home empty handed taking out fourth spot.
Community Liaison representative from Creighton’s, Monica Wastle, was on hand to present the winners with their prizes.
Congratulations to Elizabeth Cuthbert, Pam Donnelly and Rhonda Keenan from Ettalong on being the overall winners of the day.
