Central Coast triples final played at Ettalong

The final of the Bowls Central Coast triples championship was played at Ettalong Memorial Bowling Club on Saturday, February 27.

The Ettalong trio of Lee Trethowan, John Roberts and Aron Sherriff, winners of the previous season's triples championship, established a game-breaking lead of 17 to one after nine ends.

But the Terrigal team of Jeff Watson, James Cook and Darren Morrison, the Central Coast singles champion, were not done.

They won the next nine ends to be within reach at 13 to 17.

After 21 ends, in a 25-end game, they were trailing, 16 to 19.

Bowls Central Coast publicity officer Mr Kevin Dring said: "It was game-on over the closing ends and a good crowd was entertained by some outstanding bowling from both teams.

"Commonwealth Games medallist Aron Sherriff was constantly under the pump and had to dig deep to save the game and take out the title, 21 to 18.

The Ettalong trio now progresses to the Bowls NSW state championships to be held at Ettalong Memorial Bowling Club from October 15 to 22.
