Orange Ex-Services Country Club Women’s Bowls News:

Earlier this month our Mid West Region Grade 4 Pennants Champions travelled to Wollongong to compete in the State Grade 4 Pennants playoffs.

Our ladies played four games over two days.

Day 1: Orange Ex-Services defeated Dapto Citizens.

Day 1: Orange Ex-Services lost to Jindabyne/Adamimby

Day 2: Orange Ex-Services defeated Moxon Punchbowl.

Day 2: Quarter Final Orange Ex-Services lost to Kingswood.

Of the ten ladies involved in our Pennants Team, six of the ladies had not played Pennants before. Our four experienced ladies were wonderful in their help and support of these players, and both teams played great bowls against far more experienced teams. Congratulations, ladies, on a fabulous Pennants campaign in 2026.

Our Club Gala Day will be held on September 10th. Please put your name on the list if you want to play in this event.

The Restricted Triples with our Men's Club will be held on 22nd August and is open to ladies who have not bowled higher than Grade 4 Pennants and men who have not bowled higher than Grade 5 Pennants. The sheet for this is on the board in the alcove.

Lastly, the Club Mixed Pairs Championships with our Men's Club will be held on 27th September and is in the alcove but on the men's side.
