Bowler Profile
This month, the club would like to recognize one of our new bowlers that has stepped forward and gone that extra mile for the club, Trisha Bahen.
Trisha has helped in the kitchen at most of our tournaments during the season, done some gardening at the club, stepped forward during a tournament to replace a sick player and watches over the club from her kitchen window. Trisha is always happy, helpful and has a big smile on her face.
Trisha has excelled at the game of lawn bowling and won the Farthing Memorial tournament  earlier in the season. She promotes the spirit of the club by having fun and her happiness is contagious.
Thank you Trisha!
