As some readers may be aware, I recently left Wild Horse FM and will no longer be broadcasting my weekly bowls reports on Saturday mornings.
However, I will be continuing my weekly bowls column here on southburnett.com.au.
Clubs can continue to email me their reports and news as usual, and I’ll be delighted to include them in my weekly regional bowls wrap-up.
This last week gone was a particularly busy one at Kingaroy Bowls Club, so it leads this week’s bulletin:

Kingaroy news:
Kingaroy had a very big day last Sunday – Dave and Beryl’s day.
Dave and Beryl Woods are long-time members of Kingaroy Bowls Club, and the degree of respect and regard in which the couple are held was shown by the wonderful attendance of bowlers.
Dave and Beryl organised the conditions of play.
The terms were that the winners and runners up were the teams with the lowest winning scores, while third place went to the team with the lowest losing score.
Due to inclement weather, though, the day’s play was cut a bit short.
