Alex McPherson bravely battled injury to contest a brilliant performance by Terry Hope. Terry added to a stellar year by taking out the title. A resolute Carmen Koster staved off the very tenacious Estie Wines in a nail-biter. Congratulations to Terry and Carmen, and a big thanks to our volunteers who prevented spectators from going hungry or thirsty.<\/p>\n<p>The Club Pairs (both Men &amp; Women) Championships are now under way. Our Pennant sides are competing confidently and successfully. Several Anglesea teams have done very well in the Geelong Bowls Region\/State competitions. Anglesea hosts the GBR\/State Over 60\u2019s Men\u2019s Pairs this Sunday, December 5 and, although spectators are welcome, rinks will be booked out for this competition for most of the day. There is a function in the Clubhouse during that afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>While there is still some work to be done to keep lifting the Club\u2019s appearance and amenity, we have updated our outdoor seating and shelters, built a new front fence and upgraded lighting and security.<\/p>\n<p>The 25<sup>th<\/sup> Annual \u201cTriples for Triers\u201d will be held at the Club starting 6.30pm Thursday, December 6. The Silver Anniversary of this extremely popular local Community Bowls event will be conducted with the generous support of the Anglesea Community Bendigo Bank.<\/p>\n<p>Presentations for the 2020 season Club Championships took place on Tuesday evening, and a big turnout of members enjoyed an excellent evening, compliments of our volunteers and Offshore Caf\u00e9 &amp; Catering.
