Everton Park Bowls Club On the Edge Junior Classic Pairs
Everton Park Bowls Club hosted its inaugural Junior Classic Pairs on 16th October 2011. Junior Bowlers from all parts of South East Queensland attended this tournament including Australian Junior representatives Rohan Wilson, Sean Ingham and Lauren Wilson. Alongside were several other Queensland Junior representatives and district players. The format consisted of both Under 15 and open sections that consisted of four games in total being 3 bowls pairs, 2 bowl pairs, 2-‐4-‐2 pairs and traditional pairs. Major sponsors for the day were Almark Edge and Twisties Bowls Shops with additional sponsorship from local businesses Wilson’s Air Conditioning and Keith Brady Professional Real Estate. This event gave an opportunity for eight of the local Everton Park Junior Bowlers to play against many top Queensland Juniors on their home green. This provided further valuable experience to the top performing Everton Park players. The day was a huge success with many of the Juniors and their parents commenting on the format, prizes, food and the general running of the day. Special thanks must go to Amanda from Twisties Bowls Shop who ensured that every player was awarded a bowls pack for participating. Winners for the day were locals Daniel Keogh & Bradley Lawson who narrowly beat Dale McWhinney-‐Shillington and April Wilson in the Under 15 section. In the open age group Rohan Wilson & Lauren Wilson were victorious with Jessica Parolin and Jamie O’Brien awarded as runners up. Everton Park Bowls Club offers a Junior Lawn Bowls Academy every Thursday afternoon from 3:30 – 5:00pm and is free for all who wish to attend. The success of this academy has seen some of the Everton Park Junior bowlers play in the club’s first division pennant side and Super Challenge squad.
