Byron Bay Bowling Club women’s team won the Tweed Byron District Pennants Division 3 for 2023, in a fantastic celebration of the Club’s centenary year.
The final went down to the last bowl, but the ladies were able to finish on top against Brunswick Heads.
‘Every breath was held as the bowl left her hand beautifully,…it rolled in a perfect line to pull to a stop just next to the little white jack,’ Mirtha Christian said.
