TRIPLES FINAL RESULT

What a game - and what a battle in the heat!

Bob, Renee & Rick (28)
defeated
Michael, Anna & Nathan (15)

Don’t let the final score fool you - this was a hard-fought match that was neck and neck for most of the game, with plenty of brilliant bowls, big shots and pressure moments from both sides.

Congratulations to Bob, Renee and Rick on taking out the Triples!

And a huge well done to Michael, Anna and Nathan on a fantastic game and making it all the way to the final.

Brilliant bowls, great sportsmanship and one seriously hot day on the green!

Well done to all six players!

WHAT A DAY FOR THE INAUGURAL MANNING CUP!

What an absolute cracker of a day! Great bowls, plenty of laughs, friendly rivalry and, most importantly, so much fun had by everyone involved.

Congratulations to Leichhardt Bowlo, who took out the win and earned the bragging rights as the very first Manning Cup champions!

A very special thank you to Mic, Christine, Lee and Garth for everything they did to make the day such a success. Mannings is a major sponsor and fantastic supporter of both The Gladdo and Leichhardt Bowlo, and their ongoing support of both clubs and the local bowls community is hugely appreciated.

The inaugural Manning Cup was everything we hoped it would be - friendship, friendly rivalry, plenty of laughs and great community spirit.

Two clubs. One cup. One community. And the start of what will become a great new tradition.

Leichhardt might have the Cup this year . . . but we’ll be coming for it next year!
