Marian Ladies Deliver Thrilling Master Fours Finale

The Marian Ladies Bowling Club's annual Master Fours event kicked off on Monday, 12 August, with less-than-ideal weather conditions. A heavy downpour greeted the 72 lady bowlers eager to start the three-day event, but despite the weather, the show went on. With true resilience, the first day’s matches were swiftly moved to South Suburban's covered facilities, allowing play to continue. A special thank you was extended to South Suburban for their generous accommodation.
Day two brought a welcome change in weather as the sun came out, allowing the competition to return to its original venue in Marian. Players hit the green with renewed energy, and the tournament progressed smoothly.
In a nail-biting finish, Northern Beaches secured the victory in the very last bowl of the final game. The match came down to the wire, leaving spectators on the edge of their seats until the final moment.
This year's event was proudly sponsored by Stephen Andrew, Member for Mirani, who was on hand to present the winners with their trophies.
The Marian Ladies Bowling Club is more than just a sports club—it's a place where friendships flourish. If you’re looking to be part of a tight-knit community where you’re more than just another number, the Marian Ladies would love to welcome you into the valley.

Winners: (Marian President) Thelma Johnston, Jenny Petersen, Sue Hunter, Betty Petersen, Ann Smith, Member for Mirani Stephen Andrew (Sponsor)

Runners Up: Thelma Johnston, Maryann Harrigan, Stephen Andrew, Charmayne Sleeman, Rhonda Meng, Jo Inch.
