Three Ettalong bowlers play in senior zone final
Two Ettalong bowlers, Phil Westcott and Tony Leslie, have fought out the Central Coast zone Senior Bowls Final at Bateau Bay Bowling Club on March 19.
Another Ettalong bowler Darren Morrison won the Central Coast zone Singles Bowls Final against Gwandalan bowler Ben Ritzau, 25-10.
"The zone senior final started in foggy and humid conditions," said Ettalong club director Mr Kerry Watkins.
"The game proved to be a top quality contest with both players, Phil Westcott and Tony Leslie, displaying all the skills worthy of a final.
"After a great tussle, the game was eventually won by Phil winning 25 to 16."
Phil said: "It was a good game played under extremely testing conditions with Tony certainly throwing down a strong challenge."
Phil Westcott will now proceed to the State Finals in July this year.
He will also compete in the State Pairs event with another Ettalong bowler, Al Lewin.
In winning the singles, Phil has been officially announced as the Seniors Bowler of the Year.
