In the absence of Manager Dick Thornton, David Cameron acted as Chairman of Selectors, Side Manager and Gear Steward. Tony “Pop” Shoebridge who had taken up the use of a bowls lifter as a concession to becoming a senior bowler, found the lifter an excellent aid to indicate to his team where he wanted them to bowl.
It was very pleasing to hear Bowls NSW Deputy President Denis Taylor, a stalwart of Zone 9 saying “even without Aron, they are still a very strong side”.
