The Leigh Bowling Club completed the season with the Cameron/Penney Tournament held last month. Work has now started on maintenance of the green.
Recently, the club champions in singles, pairs, triples and fours competed in the Northland Bowls Champion of Champions Tournaments, where they played against the club champions from other Northland clubs.
“Unfortunately, all the Leigh players were knocked out when they lost their first game,” club secretary Ian Bradnam said. “Better luck next year!”
Leigh had a visit from the Kitty Hawk Club for a fundraising tournament, which raised $1200 for Warkworth St John.
“We recently met with Sport North Harbour and they will help us fund a weekly junior introduction to bowls programme, starting next season.”
The sessions are planned to run every Friday from 4pm to 5pm, for students from local schools and colleges.
The next event on the club calendar is the annual general meeting to be held at the club on Sunday, June 12, starting at 1pm. All welcome. Any enquiries, contact Ian on 021 423144.
