Ettalong defeats Halekulani in bowls

The Ettalong Eagles defeated Central Coast rivals the Halekulani Hornets in the first round of the Big Bowls challenge .

"State player Shane Garvey, an Ettalong junior, shot down his competition in the singles rubber by playing right over the top of fellow NSW and Australian representative Aron Sherriff," said Central Coast Bowls publicity officer Mr Bob Penson.

"The rest of the team followed suit and crushed their respective pairs and triples opponents with equal ease registering the maximum points in each contest.

"This was no mean feat as the Halekulani team is chock-a-block with State and Zone champions and is a past winner of the competition."

Ettalong now heads the table after the first round with 16 points.

Ettalong will be up against The Entrance in another local derby at Ettalong on Friday, December 14, at 6pm.
