Coach of the Year

John Roberts of Ettalong has received the Coach of the Year award in Bowls NSW inaugural Volunteer Awards on Thursday, November 29.

Mr Roberts is currently the Bowls Central Coast Under-18 coach and, this year, players from his club won almost every Bowls Central Coast championship.

The current Bowls Central Coast Singles Champion, 19-year-old Harley McDonald, has been coached by Mr Roberts since before his teens.

"John's Club has been increasing in numbers of bowlers which can be attributed to a number of things and the positive coaching program that John leads at Ettalong is certainly one of them," said Bowls Central Coast secretary Mr Doug Rose.
