The Cup will take place at Parliament House, home to the oldest bowling green in Victoria still in use.<\/p>\n
Nationals Member for Euroa, Annabelle Cleeland, said the event was set to be a fantastic occasion.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis tournament promises to be a fun opportunity for camaraderie and friendly competition, bringing together clubs from throughout the region,” she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI look forward to sharing the joy of bowls and fostering connections within the bowling community.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ms Cleeland has shown support for local sporting clubs, advocating for such organisations across the electorate to receive funding support under the Regional Community Sports Infrastructure Fund.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur local sports clubs are providing people with a strong sense of community, belonging and an active lifestyle, and deserve all the support they can get,\u201d said Ms Cleeland.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe proposed infrastructure upgrades I have seen will benefit the community immensely, including upgrading facilities and improving accessibility for female athletes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Peter Cunningham said bowlers from all the clubs are looking forward to the event.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt will be a fun day and include lunch and a tour of Parliament House,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are 24 players altogether and we will play two games each of Classic Fours on the three beautiful greens.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are hoping it will become a regular event.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
