Broken Hill Men’s Indoor Bowls Association

A GOOD trussell was created with the Demo Team and Try-Hards when both teams were bowling some brilliant shots.

Demo just kept their heads in front but Try Hards team got to the point when they had shot, a great bowl will disturbed the head and eventually ran away with the game 17 to 10 good bowling from the eight players.

The other top of the table played as if it was a c grade effort for Sturt, Sturt played a triples game and sub for their fourth player with Muso only having three players.

Muso, made up of Ray Grenfell, Peter Merritt, and Aaron Hawke, played brilliantly.

The games will stay at the Sturt Club for the next three weeks.
