Debra Moore & Carol Boyd defeated Sandra O'Malley & Gale Hill in a nail biting finish, being all level with one end to go.   

In the other Semi-final Christine Gentle & Renette Burgess defeated Lorraine Field & Lynne Gordon in a very long match.

Final:

Saturday's final was played in ideal conditions and the match did not disappoint the many spectators who came along to support the ladies.   Both teams played some great bowls, however Debbie & Carol managed to hold on to win against Chris & Renette.

Congratulations to all these ladies and well done to Debbie & Carol.

2023-2024 MAJOR SINGLES

The 2023-24 Major Singles were completed on Friday 11th August.  We had 11 entries for this event.  There were some very close matches played and great bowls witnessed.

Semi-finals:        

Lynne Gordon  defeated  Terry Causby;   Gale Hill defeated Barbara Schultz

Final:

Between Lynne and Gale was played in superb weather on Friday 11th August. This was a very close match.  Lynne got the first shot then Gale replied and this is how it went with only a couple of shots between them until Gale shot to a 15 to 8 lead.  However Lynne then won the next 4 ends to make it all level. Gale then got ahead and again Lynne caught up.  At 21 apiece it was anyone's match. Gale went to 22 then Lynne got a 2 to make her 23 and then she played 2 great bowls to seal the match.

Congratulations to Lynne and also to Gale.   A great final.     

Thanks to all the spectators who came to watch.

2023 CHARITY DAY

Lorraine (CCKIN)  Pres. Gale   Rhonda (CCKIN)  VP Sandra

The 2023 Charity Day was held on Tuesday 8th August.    It was decided this year to make it a Mixed event with bright mufti attire.     Pres. Gale welcomed 100 players and over 16 non-players,  It was great to see our greens full and everyone enjoying the day.  

We had raffles, Money Tree, Tombolas, Lucky Door Prizes and more.   Our thanks to all who donated prizes and to all who contributed by participating.     

Our charity recipients this year were again Central Coast Kids in Need.  This is a voluntary organisation that supports the well-being of seriously ill children through easing the financial burden for medication, equipment, travel and accommodation.  Sisters Lorraine and Rhonda started the charity some 20 years ago and have assisted hundreds of families since then.

Pres. Gale was delighted to present a cheque, on behalf of our club, to Lorraine and Rhonda in the amount of $4000.00.     Lorraine thanked all for this generous donation and said it will go towards helping many families.
