Bowled over to have world champs
Naenae Bowling Club is hosting the World Singles Champion of Champions tournament for the next two years.
Competitors will come from 28 different countries, bringing supporters and visitors to the region. The World Singles event follows on from Naenae previously hosting the televised Bowls Premier League and Bowls 3five finals along with several national tournaments.
Club President Glenn McTaggart said it was an honour to be selected for such a prestigious event. The $6.25 million council facility was opened in September 2017.
