2018 TRIPLES
The 2018 State Triples at District level were played from 2nd to 5th July. 56 teams contested the event. The first days play was at Avoca Beach and The Entrance Bowling Clubs. There was heavy rain throughout the night and a very cold day day greeted the players. Luckily the rain held off. It was off to Terrigal Bowling Club on the Tuesday and although there was again overnight rain the day was sunny but cold. The Semi-finals and Final were played at Davistown Bowling Club and the players couldn't have asked for better conditions. A very warm, unseasonable sunny day.
