State Pairs

Winners:   Margaret Smith   Karen Croker     Ettalong

 This match was played between Margaret Smith & Karen Croker (Ettalong) and Christine Hamalainen & Donna Hamilton (Ourimbah).    It was first time into a District final for a nervous Christine & Donna.   They played some lovely bowls but the experience of Margaret & Karen  proved too strong and they went on to win comfortably.  Congratulations to  Margaret & Karen and well done to Christine & Donna.

 State Senior Pairs

Winners:  Robyn Deane   Michelle Treadwell   Halekulani

This match was keenly contested between  Robyn Deane & Michelle Treadwell (Halekulani) and Mary Farrugia & Maria Wallis (Bateau Bay).   After a slow start by Mary & Maria they caught up to Robyn & Michelle then the lead seesawed between the two.   Robyn & Michelle got a handy 6 towards the latter part of the game and kept the lead from then.    Great bowling from both teams.    Congratulations to Robyn & Michelle and well done to Mary & Maria.
