Another big week of bowls at Tea Gardens Country Club Bowling Club.

The Women’s Fours final was held on Tuesday 3 March, 2026.  Congratulations to Pat Baker, Karen Green, Sandra Leisemann and Lorraine Murphy on defeating Bette Saillard, Jean Glover, Jane Uff and Lynda Richards 18–8.  Lynda bowled exceptionally well throughout the match, with many of her well-placed bowls unfortunately being knocked out of contention on numerous ends.  A very well-played game by the winners, and a determined effort by the runners-up. Well done to all ladies on a great final.

Mixed bowls on Thursday 5/3/2026 had 14 people playing.  The winning team having the highest score was won by Vickie McMillan, Karen Vollmer and Bev Dunn. The raffle winner was Lynda Richards.

On Wednesday we had 40 men blowing which included 2 new members.  Overall winners for the day with a total of 23 were Graham Reynolds, Wayne Duggan and Mark Nightingale.  Morning Winners was decided by the lowest winning margin of 1 and the winners were Ron Webster, Keith Smith and Terry Munright.  Afternoon winners were decided by the lowest winning score of 10 and the winners were Col Amos, Craig McDonald and Ian Baker.  The Garden Eatery voucher was won by Mark Peters. Thanks to the Garden Eatery for sponsoring this voucher.  The 80 Club was won by Rob Young.  Col Amos and Mark Peters were celebrating their birthdays and received a birthday drink voucher each.
