2012 Club Challenge

 

The 2012 Bowls NSW Club Challenge is officially under way.

Traditional Illawarra rivals Warilla and Dapto Citizens opened the campaign to see who can conquer the challenge, playing the first match of the 2012 Bowls NSW Club Challenge.

Warilla, reigning Gold Division Champions and boosted by the appearance of two world champions, Jeremy Henry and Alex 'Tattie' Marshall, were unable to overcome their local rivals, with Dapto Citizens winning all three rinks.

The Bowls NSW Club Challenge pits sides of seven club based bowlers up against each other in singles, pairs and fours with points allocated in each match based on rinks won. In knockout play the side to win two of the three contests wins the match.

The format has been very well received by competitors, with feedback about the competition being overwhelmingly positive. Feedback from competing clubs and players has been overwhelmingly positive and the number of sides involved has grown each year.
