Event for non-registered bowlers

Umina Beach Bowling Club hosted the Hav'ago Pairs on February 16.

This was the third year the Hav'Ago Pairs has been run at Umina.

The event introduces non-registered bowlers to the game and lets them test their skills on the green with a registered teammate.

A round robin twilight final of three games of five ends was played out amongst four teams who had won their way through Sectional play at their respective clubs and won a Catchment Final against other Section winners in their area.

"They were playing for a share of $1000, so the usual carefree atmosphere became a little tenser as bowlers took their turn on the mat," said Bowls Central Coast publicity officer Mr Kevin Dring.

"The outright winner after three games was the Davistown RSL pair of Mark Simpson and Alice Diamond, 2 1/2 wins, plus five.

Runners-up were Toukley District's Michael Gulliver and David Spiers 1 1/2 wins, plus one.

Mooney Mooney's Kelly Mussett and Wayne Hughes were third with one win, nil margin, and fourth were Munmorah United Nathan Collins and Michael Heaton one win, minus six.
