Club Mulwala Men’s Singles Club Championship – FINAL.
The final was held on this date as the original was cancelled due to weather conditions.
A small but enthusiastic group of members watched this enthralling game of bowls between the current Club Champion Daryl Dighton and Jason Milich, a relative newcomer to bowls in comparison to his more experienced opponent.
Mark Smith made the comment that ‘if he (Daryl) is on his game, he will be extremely hard to beat’.
And so it was the case in the early stages of the game with Daryl getting out to a good lead with great consistent bowling.
At one stage he was 23/10 in front and everyone was certain that the game was going to be over very quickly.
Jason was having none of this and the bowls that followed brought the crowd to life as the ‘head’s became tighter with excellent concentration and control by both bowlers.
Jason’s fighting spirit was on show before Daryl closed out the game 25/18.
Congratulations to Daryl who is a worthy Club Champion for the second year in a row.

Some people are just not good spectators in this game.
Welcome back mate.
