WOMENS Major Pairs 2025
Tuesday 2nd December saw the Semi-Finals of this pairs championship.
In the first game Dot Dallas & Lorraine Murphy played Bette Saillard & Lynda Richards. This game had 4 very accomplished lady bowlers – it could go either way! On the day the game started quite evenly, but at the 6th end Dot & Lorraine slowly gained a small lead & built on that to win this semi quite solidly 21-7.
The second semi had our tournament favourites Robyn Beaumont & Colleen Ross playing a very in-form Karen Green & Jane Uff. Jane & Karen coming off a solid win in the previous round, were hoping to continue their strong performance. However, the windy weather conditions proved a bit challenging & the experience of Robyn & Colleen shone through with a strong win 25-8.

Congratulations ladies on a fine performance!
