Rotorua's Delwyn Hughes has retained her place in the Northern Zone Indoor Bowls Masters team for the 69th Summerset National Indoor Bowls Championships in Ashburton next month.

The Owhata Club member will lead in the women's fours.

Hughes, the Patron of New Zealand Indoor Bowls, donated the trophy for the masters event in 2008 when the event was introduced. The Northern Zone has lost the trophy only once, in Timaru in 2009.

Lake Taupo Club's Robin Porter and Matthew Farquhar were named in the North Island academy team.

Porter, who will skip the men's triple, makes his seventh appearance for the academy team.

He was runner-up in the national championship triples in 2015 and was third equal in the pairs in 2012.

Bay of Plenty's Farquhar, the current New Zealand junior singles champion, comes back in from the reserves after competing in 2015 and 2016.

He has had a stellar year in the Bay of Plenty winning four titles as well as being the first junior to win a Bay of Plenty centre gold star.

The North and South Island Indoor Bowls academy teams and Northern and Southern Zone masters teams will compete for the Sam Henderson Memorial Trophy and Delwyn Hughes Trophy respectively at the EA Networks Centre in Ashburton from June 9 to 16.

In the Northern Zone's women's four Roslyn Irwin from Waikato returns from the reserves as the skip with Manawatu's Gloria Hall as the three, while Bronnie Reed from north Taranaki is the two and Hughes the lead.

Reed and Hughes retain their places in the four. They meet Canterbury's Kathleen Curtis, who plays for the eighth time, South Island representatives Kathryn Edgar, Jean Stratford, and Brenda Young.

The South Island will be defending the Sam Henderson Memorial Trophy and the Northern Zone Masters team the Delwyn Hughes Trophy.
