Everglades wins Buckworth trophy

The Lorna Buckworth Trophy was held at Woy Woy Women's Bowling Club on Thursday, June 21, and was won by Everglades Bowling Club.

The trophy was contested by all four Peninsula women's bowling clubs comprising Umina, Ettalong, Everglades and Woy Woy.

The competition, which was first contested in 1969, is for players with experience of three years and under.

Lorna Buckworth joined Woy Woy Women's Bowling Club in 1948 and was a member for 46 years.

She held many positions over the years including secretary and vice president.

In 1962 she was elected president, a position which she kept for the next eight years.

In 1968 she was made a life member of the Central Coast District Women's Bowling Association for 20 years of service.

Lorna was already a life member of Woy Woy Women's Bowling Club.

This year the four Clubs played in cool but dry weather with very close games.

For many of the players this was their first tournament representing their Club.
