Bowls group plays with Woy Woy Bowling Club

The Central Coast Past Presidents Association bowls group had its first day back on the greens for the year in February at the Woy Woy Bowling Club.

Woy Woy club president Ms Jeanette Pickering and bowls co-ordinator Mr James Cook welcomed the group to their club.

Association president Mr Ian Jarratt said that, following morning tea, 36 bowlers took to the green, some experiencing playing on synthetic for the first time.

"After bowls, the group enjoyed lunch and a quiet drink before heading home."

Mr Jarratt said the CCPPA group had been active for over 30 years and was originally a male association.

"Over time this has changed and women were welcomed into the membership.

"There are two levels of membership: full members who are entitled to vote at the annual meeting and be on the committee and social bowlers."

"Full membership is open to all members.

"Only the president has to be a past president of a bowls club.

"Any other position can be occupied by a full member

"The group these days is purely a social group.

"Our activities consist of visiting bowling clubs on the Central Coast where we enjoy a social game of bowls against their members.

"An annual three-day trip away is held in September or October.

"We also enjoy an annual game against the RNSWBA, alternately playing one year on the Central Coast and the other in Sydney."

Mr Jarratt said that, after the closure of the Sporties registered club, the Woy Woy Bowling Club were keen to let others know that they were still going.

"The club has loyal members who play bowls, have a pennant side and maintain a section of the club building and the bowling green.

"The rest of the building is closed."

Bowlers who are interested in joining the CCPPA group can leave a message at Club Umina reception for group secretary Ms Larraine Cooper or Mr Jarratt.

"Our next outing is to Terrigal Bowling Club on Sunday, April 18." SOURCE: Media release, 18 Mar 2021 Ian Jarratt, CCPPA
