Crackerjack at Edge Hill
AN invigorated Bowls Queensland has swept into Cairns and spent three days outlining its plans, introducing a new app and hosting coaching sessions.

The gathering at Edge Hill Cairns Bowls Club last week drew 50 people from 15 clubs across the Far North.
Edge Hill Cairns club bowls development manager Troy Somerville said the new Bowls Queensland board was keen to show the bowls fraternity it was eager to grow the sport.
“There is a new board and they are really active out there on the front line,” he said.
“They are wanting to make a change.”
Mr Somerville said day one was a question and answer session involving Bowls Queensland chief executive Brett Wilkie, vice-president Wendy Wilson, director Graham Tanis and finance director Graham Lewis.
Day two introduced a new BowsLink app where bowlers can book games and monitor their progress, see results and other aspects of the game.
The last day concentrated on the game with theory inside and practical outside on the green involving 60 players.
