All winners at Warburton Bowls Club



The Warburton Bowls Club continued its steady improvement with all Pennant teams victorious this week.

The weekend Warburton 1 side played Upwey- Tecoma 1 away winning two rinks and drawing the other two. This resulted in scoring 16 points from their 89 shots to 62 victory.

Rink scores were as follows: S. Lord 16/ 16; T. Appleton 28/ 18; C. Neale 20/ 20 and S. Lee-Tet 25/ 8.

The Burras top side looks forward to the challenge of playing their section’s top side, Mooroolbark 1, away this weekend.

Warburton 2 played Heatherdale 1 at home in superb bowling conditions. Heatherdale were quick off the mark creating a handy lead in the early stages of the game, before the Burras fought back well to achieve a slight lead at the break.

The second half saw the determined Burras side pull away by playing longer ends to achieve a well-deserved 88 shots to 58 victory, winning three rinks and losing one.

Rink scores were G. Lewis 26/ 11; P. Summers 27/ 12; F. Wagenaar 16/ 21 and M. Reynolds 19/ 14.

They too look forward to the challenge of playing their section’s top side, Vermont South 2, at home this weekend.

The Midweek side continued their great start to the season with another good performance away against Heathmont 3. They won two rinks and drew one to record a 57 shots to 44 victory.

Rink scores were as follows: S. Lord 18/ 18; G. Walsh 22/ 14 and R. McKail 17/ 12.
