The last round of the day saw the junior (1-8 year) bowler in each team becoming the skip.
Once again there was great bowls played and at the end of the day two teams were equal on wins, ends and points.
Both teams share the trophy and whether they were presented with first or second prizes was decided on the toss of a coin.
Generous sponsorship allowed the association to present three prizes on each green. Prizewinners were:
Green B; 1st C Jellick, L Reader, R Sowerby, L Wyatt, (Composite) 3 wins, 31 ends, 53 pts. 2nd D Henwood, J Geldenhuys, D Adamson, G Walker (Mangawhai) 3 wins, 22 ends, 50 pts; 3rd G Brockelsby, C Harrison, K McLeod, D McDowell; 3 wins, 21 ends, 39 pts.
Green C: 1st= G Neeley, D Kerr, M Yovich, D Mora (Kamo), 4 wins, 26 ends, 59 pts; 1st= M Bradley, D Lawrence, L Vallance, E Chrol (Composite) 4 wins, 26 ends, 59 pts. 3rd: A Tan, M Methley, J Manley, K Cooper (Kamo) 4 wins, 23 ends, 57 pts.
