A supportive cheer squad of approximatly 30 residents accompanied the Tea Gardens Country Club mens team to a blizzardly cold Bathurst on August 2.
With temperatures dropping to -2 degrees the State Pennant Finals were very cold.
Our representatives gave a very good account of themselves.

All good tight games but regretfully we did not bring home the trophy. Incidentally, Cootamundra went on to contest the final but they lost that one.
Well done to all concerned and special thanks to Noel Jackson for leading the teams and organising all the arrangements.
I have it on very good authority that the associated social activities were worth the trip apart from the bowling.
