Margaret Smith narrowly defeated in grand final

Ettalong Memorial Women's Bowling Club member Ms Margaret Smith was narrowly defeated by Gosford City Women's Bowling Club's Ms Heather McColl in the grand final of the 2019 Central Coast District State Singles competition.

The competition was played out at bowling clubs across the Central Coast between May 13 and16 with Everglades Woy Woy hosting the finals.

Ms Smith was one of eight players to make the quarterfinals.

She defeated Bateau Bay Women's Bowling Club's Ms Dianne Chalkin to progress to the semi-final.

In the semi-final Ms Smith again emerged victorious, taking out The Entrance's Ms Denise Ellison to make the grand final.

Women's Bowls Central Coast website editor Ms Lesley Swales said both Ms Smith and Ms McColl played some phenomenal bowls in their grand final match.

"Once again, as throughout the week, great bowls were played.

"It was lovely to see the support for both the players.

"The game was played in good sportsmanship," Ms Swales said.
