THE Kilmore Bowls Club held a Women’s Tournament last Thursday with sixteen teams competing for prizes and notoriety.
Secretary Lesley Hodgson organised enthusiastic players from nearby clubs; Wallan and Broadford and of course the Kilmore Composite. Regional clubs included Yea, Gisborne, Kyneton, Romsey, Seymour, Trentham, Whittlesea, Kingsbury, Rochester/Elmore and Tongala.
“The comradeship and friendships exhibited by the players towards each other was very evident and all players played with good sportsmanship and thoroughly enjoyed the day,” Ms Hodgson said.
“We would like to thank our sponsors; T J Scott Funeral Directors, Nutrien Harcourts and a number of local businesses who donated gifts and prizes, and also our members who donated prizes.
“Congratulations to all our teams but especially to Whittlesea Team 1 who won all three games to total 47- points.”
Kyneton were the runners up, with two games and a draw to total 40 points and the best ‘last’ game was won by Tongala by seven points.
At the end of proceedings, Ms Hodgson also thanked all the volunteers who contributed to the days success and Grace Tavener for filling in for Whittlesea who were a player short.
