The Gisborne team of Helena Cyrulo, Dorothy Evans and skipper Teresa Wylie won the final of the Women’s Triples of the Ballarat Highlands Bowls Region at the weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They defeated the other Gisborne team of L Ball, M Ivory and V Noble (skipper) and will go onto play in the State Championships next year representing the region. Evans played a great final and concluded the match with her bowl being the winning shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wylie’s team started strongly going out to a 12-1 lead after six ends before Noble’s rink went on to win seven of the next 11 ends narrowing the lead to a single shot to Wylie’s rink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the last end to be played, the draw bowl played by Wylie’s second, Dorothy Evans, scored the winning shot to secure the win for the Wylie rink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Winning skipper Teresa Wylie said the greens were magnificent and played well all day and the weather was perfect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We were fortunate to win through in the morning’s semi-final against the Victoria team from Ballarat,” Wylie said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The final was between the two Gisborne teams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We got off to a good start before V Noble’s team caught up and it was down to the wire with the last end to play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Dorothy’s bowl held shot and it was not necessary for me to bowl my last bowl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We had great support from our Gisborne bowling members who came along, which is much appreciated.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wylie rink’s final score was 18 shots to Noble’s 16 shots.
