Newcastle Bowling Club congratulates all players selected, especially the 15 players from its own club.
The annual Fedauto Business League got under way last week, with two full greens, a pleasing sight for the club and sponsors.
The club extends its thanks to Alan and Tillie Kirkland for their continued sponsorship and to all the participants who enter year after year. It was good to see players back on the greens as well as welcome the new faces.
