Mt Lawley Consistency Singles Wrap
The traditional season opener Mt Lawley Consistency Singles finals were played on Sunday 18th September in good weather which saw the reigning Bowls WA Club of the Year Manning continue on their winning way providing both Men’s and Women’s champions.
The Men’s event was taken out by Daniel Trewhella who added another Singles title to his already bulging resume of major victories. In a really close contest where both players put in plenty of great bowls Trewhella was up against team mate Shane Knott, with the final score being 153-147. Knott had survived a thriller in his semi-final against Paul Kain (Joondalup) who was the surprise packet in the Men’s competition.
Likewise Therese Hastings showed she still has the talent to match it with the best winning the Women’s competition in stylish fashion. In what has become a regular in Women’s bowls it what Manning v Mosman Park in the final with Cathie Smith putting in a career best performance to make to a major final. Unfortunately she couldn’t really match it with Hastings who took the win 120-80. Smith took her semi-final in a thriller 101-99 over Julie Savell (Osborne Park) whilst Hastings also survived a close one against Ruby Leggett (Manning) 103-97. Leggett who is just 18 years old showing she is a star of the future with a great tournament.
