South-West win ABCA Cup...
Date: 14 August 2021
ABCA was delighted with the number of teams competing in this year's ABCA Cup.
42 mixed Fours playing across event headquarters, Remuera Bowls & host club Epsom Bowling Club was the best they had seen.
The changeable weather didn't deter play, with everyone able to complete all four rounds. It was a great event, especially as the sportsmanship continued off the green as players came together at the end to support each other at prize giving.
