Proserpine Bowls Club bowlers attended the annual Northern Challenge played at Northern Beaches in Mackay last weekend.
North Queensland came out overall winners with Mackay taking second and third place, with five Proserpine players taking roles in the Mackay teams.
Proserpine players Wayne Handley and Grahame Kinnear were selected to participate in District Sides at Coolum in May after their excellent performances.
On Wednesday, there were ten players for social bowls and Sandy Daffara and Bruce Uhe defeated Pat Bownds and Philip Brown 42-11; while John Anderson, Jim Bownds, and Warren Wilson defeated Alen Sanderson, Mike Harrison, and Barry Zillmann 29-10.
On Sunday, the club welcomed visitors from Capricorn Tourers Caravan Club for a game of Social Bowls – thanks to Bruce and Barbara Uhe for the work done in preparing food.
