District pairs at Cross

The Southern Cross Bowls Club was one of the venues chosen to host the District Mixed Pairs, Saturday .

It was still a little damp on the green, so competition began as the fog lifted on Sunday.

The green was running well, and the competition was hot. Teams from as far away as Goondiwindi and Tenterfield showing what competition and fun is at the same time.

The team of Ron Philps and Sue Butz from Tannymorel certainly got everyone’s attention when they scored with touchers touchers in the ditch side by side along with the jack.

The volunteers from the club did a great job in preparing for and running the day with lunch included as well.
