Major pairs play ahead of storm

Umina Beach Women's Bowling Club played its Major Pairs final game on January 29, narrowly avoiding the storm that hit the Coast.

Four very experienced players battled it out on the green, with Ms Dawn Burrows and Ms Pat Neal playing against Ms Bev Allan and Ms Yvonne Gordon.

Ms Burrows and Ms Neal led from the start but Ms Allan and Ms Gordon stayed with them, with only a point in it on the 11th end, eight to seven.

Ms Burrows and Ms Neal pulled ahead from the 12th end, with Ms Allan and Ms Gordon staying stuck on nine until the 18th end.

Ultimately, Ms Burrows and Ms Neal claimed victory, winning 18 to nine.

Spectators watching the game said the score did not reflect the quality of the evenly matched pairs game.
