On behalf of all the members and committee of The Oakura Bowling Club, we would like to offer our deepest sympathies to Philly and family on the passing of Paddy. We will miss his entertaining stories - especially around a Lion Red beer, his courageous attitude and most of all his friendship. Our thoughts are with Paddy's family during this difficult time.

Great work ladies. All at Oakura proud of you.

It's a silver medal for our representatives at the Bowls New Zealand National Champion of Champions Women's Triples. Briar Atkinson, Tina Atkinson-Watt and Jackie Moeahu representing Paritutu, played exceptionally well but on the final end lost out to a strong team from Stoke 14-16.
