Nathan & Lee are BCC Champion of Club Champion Pair

Ettalong's Nathan Malloy and Lee Trethowan are the 2019 BCC Champion of Club Champion Pair.

They achieved this honour in a well deserved victory in the final against Umina's Champions Glen Simington and Shane Starkey 18-4 which was held today 8th September 2019 at Ettalong Memorial.

As often happens the drama of the 2019 championship was in the earlier rounds.   Glen and Shane won their quarter final by one shot over Breakers' Michael Maycock and Darren Hooper.  Then they played a semi final against Bateau Bay's Brett Williams and Grant Spurway who had a very hard fought one point win in their quarter final over the high profile Wyong pair of Wayne Hesling and Mark Wheatley.  The Umina pair played impeccable bowls in very windy conditions in the semi final to defeat the Bateau Bay duo 26-8.

Meanwhile Nathan and Lee had been travelling comfortably through the early rounds until the semi-final when they faced up against Terrigal's Chayne Edwards and Rod Rewko.  All four players played sensational bowls in very windy conditions.  Terrigal got away to an early 8-1 lead but Ettalong came back to finally draw the game 19 all after 19 ends.  Lee and Nathan went on to win the semi 21-20 only ever in the lead after the last end.
