Bowls club helps out soccer ladies
THE Edge Hill Bowls Club has donated $5500 to the Edge Hill United Football Club to cover the registration of 11 premier women for the 2024 season.
Female members of the football club had spent the previous 12 months selling tickets in the bowls club’s weekly Thursday night meat raffle draw.
The net proceeds of the sales totalled $5500.
“We’re so grateful to have the support of other local clubs,” said a football club spokeswoman.
“Pay it forward and get down to the Edge Hill Bowls Club for a meal and a game,” she said.
Bowls club operations manager Lawrence Green said members enjoyed the Thursday night raffles when the 'girls' networked and sold tickets in the meat raffles, raising thousands of dollars for their club.
"It's a win for both organisations," he said.
