Tanya Harrison skipped the winning team in the annual Ella Gibson Women’s Open Fours held at Poverty Bay Bowling Club.

Harrison and her Gisborne Bowling Club team of Ginny Sherriff, Libby Clay and Marise Raklander won four of the five games they played over two days.

It was a first centre title for Clay and Raklander.

Runners-up were the Poverty Bay team of Jessie Davis-Law (skip), Cheryl Jenkins, Lesley Seymour and Debs Hancock. They had three wins and were the only team to take a game off the winners.

The tournament drew six teams – two from Gisborne and one each from the Kahutia, Poverty Bay, Te Karaka and Tolaga Bay clubs.

All teams played three games on the Saturday and two on the Sunday.

Despite rain, wind and a cold temperature, players produced some good bowls in the tournament, which was sponsored by Te Karaka Meat Traders.
