Underbool Bowls Club Triples Star Day

A highly successful Triples Star Day Tournament was held at Underbool on Sunday 20th October, attracting representative bowlers from Sunraysia, Hopetoun and Murrayville.

The 66 bowlers enjoyed playing on the well prepared green in magnificent Mallee weather. The ladies were kept busy throughout the day providing meals for the two fills of bowlers. The visitors were most appreciative of the superb country cuisine.

The team of Ian “Butch’ Pollock (s), Brian Horton and Mick Legin from Workers were the winners on 85 points. Coming in runners/up were the Nangiloc team of Ben Mansell (s), Alan Erskine and Shane Moore with 82 ½ points. Third winners were Gordon Gray (s), Trevor Flack and George Milward from Irymple on 81 points.

A day such as this is made more successful by wonderful sponsors. Major sponsorship of the day was provided by Findex, with supporting sponsors Westrac Caterpillar, Good Deal Tyres, Bunnings, Bursons, Repco, First Choice Liquor and Dan Murphy’s.

President of Underbool Bowling Club, Robert Gloster is most appreciative of the generous sponsorship given and also the attendance of the visiting bowlers and the way the Star Day was supported.

Robert also appreciated the work done by the local Underbool members in having the green and grounds in such immaculate condition and the excellent catering. Many thanks to all.
