Borough Burblings 27 February
Our pennant season is now well and truly over with the defeat of the weekend Sixers last Saturday. On a beautiful day with a green that was running well, they were unable to match it with Golden Square losing by 25 shots. Square got off to a great start and was leading well in all…

A mighty effort on Sunday saw our team of Jan Robertson, Pam Hughes and Kaye Rowe (s) become the 2024 BCG Bowls Region Ladies Triples champions by defeating the Olivia Cartwright skipped Moama team at Maryborough Highlands 19 /16. The girl’s started slowly without letting Moama get too far ahead. They dropped a six before…

Our disappointing pennant season continues. The only team to win were the weekend Sixers with a four shot (2 rinks up) win. They are sitting in third spot on the ladder. This win was particularly notable as we had another week with over 10 people unavailable. The last team to be picked is always going…

Since the last posting two complete rounds have been completed and our scratchy season continues. Most of our teams won one match and lost the other. The Weekend Ones and the Mid-week sixes lost both of their matches. The Mid-week season is at the half way mark and the ladder positions of our teams are:…
