Bowling club at zone competition

Ettalong Memorial Bowling Club was the only club to represent the Central Coast at last month's North Shore Zone competition at Asquith Bowling Club, according to Coast Bowls News journalist Mr Bob Penson.

The competition was played over three consecutive Wednesdays and clubs provided both a pair and a triples team to compete.

Ettalong joined teams from St Ives, West Pymble, Turramurra and Belrose to play a total of 18 games of 13 ends.

"Ettalong managed to gain a place in the final, only to miss out on the major $1200 prize by only one point to St Ives," Mr Penson said.

"St Ives' finished with a total of 30 to Ettalong's 29 points.

Mr Penson said the final two teams were well out from other competitors.

Ettalong's team was captain Mick Douglas, John Garside, John Trim, Mick Martin, Roger Boland and Eddie McDermott.
