Sentch skips team to victory

Team Sentch – from left Richard Thomas (two), Mike McCormick (lead), Rodney Sentch (skip) and Graham Goodall (three) won the Central Bowling Club’s men’s fours championship on Sunday in a clash between youth and experience. Team Sentch prevailed over the youthful team of Jesse Russell, Clayton Hockley, James Hunter and Taylor Horn.

Meanwhile the St Patricks Day bowls tournament was well supported with a full green of bowlers, with many visitors. The annual event was  as usual very colourful especially with many participants dressed for the St Paddy’s day theme.

Winners on the day was the Fay Bird skipped triple which included Cheryl Olsen and Raewyn Chalken.

On the social side, the best dressed  theme competition for the occasion was won by (man) Alistair Carter and (lady) Sue Le Compte.
