Update 12th May 2014.

Te Raki Cup.



For 81 years now this cup has been played for. I heard someone say that this may be one of the oldest challenges in the Manawatu.

So, it was fitting that Doug and Brent called on two of the more senior members of both clubs to participate in the presentation of the cup to the Winners. 
Ivy from Takaro and Barry from Northern.

It was a great day for bowls. Warm and sunny, no wind and good company.

At the lunch break when we all sat down to a nice hot meal provided by the Takaro club, the score was 8 to 6. Northern, with their nose just in front.

Northern pulled away in the second session to win 20 to 8.


Thanks Takaro for a very enjoyable day.
