Ron returns with national bronze

Ettalong Memorial Bowling Club member Ron Mowday has returned from the 2018 Multi-Disability Lawn Bowls National Championships with a bronze medal.

The Titles were held in Perth on May 25 and 26 at Kardinya Lawn Bowling Club.

Mowday competed in the Men's B7/8 Pairs event with fellow NSW Wizards teammate Doug Lambert.

The pair battled it out to the finals but were beaten by the teams from Tasmania (gold) and Victoria (silver).

It's been a huge year of representative bowls for Mowday who was selected for both the Wizards and the NSW Woomeras.

The Woomeras are the State's bowlers arm team and compete using a bowling arm, a device made from lightweight marine grade alloy with a polyester coating that enables people with disabilities that affect their arms, coordination, upper body strength and mobility to bowl.

Mowday was also named the NSW Disability Bowler of the Year in February after a phenomenal performance on the green in 2017.

Mowday will next compete with the Woomeras in September. SOURCE: Facebook, 26 May 2018 Kevin Dring, Ettalong Eagles
