Upwey-Tecoma tops the table

UPWEY-Tecoma’s third side, playing at home, toppled ladder leaders Bayswater, last Sunday and climbed into the top spot.
Dieter Eick and his team of Peter Kornow, Paul Hutchinson and Elaine Shepherd, put in a rink of the week award sterling effort to record a 17 shots lead to triumph.
George Simons and his team of Leigh Robinson, Ron Meers and Gretal Kornow continued their winning form to finish with five shots up.

Promoted to play lead for Damien Jones, Gray consistently set up the head by putting pressure on his older opponent with bowls within centimetres of the jack.

The Division Six side journeyed to Riversdale Golf Bowls Club and were defeated by a margin of nine shots.
