Wide Bay Bowls Classic (WBBC) – Finals Day – Saturday 26 April
Burnett travelled to Pialba and played Urangan on Saturday morning in the Qualifying Final to see who played Bargara in the afternoon in the Grand Final.
In the morning game, Burnett defeated Urangan 5 rinks to 0 rinks in a dominant display to reach the Grand Final. Well done!
In the Final it was a close encounter right up until the closing ends.
Burnett won the Men’s Fours and the Men’s Triples with the results of the Mixed Fours and Men’s Pairs going down to the last couple of ends to decide the overall winner.
Unfortunately, Burnett lost both rinks in a tight finish to go down 2 rinks to Bargara winning 3 rinks.
Well done to all players as your efforts and commitment was very commendable.
Big thank you to ALL players that represented Burnett during the 5 round games and those that played on Finals Day.
Thank you to Allan Carney and Tracey Rye for travelling to Pialba as our reserves for the Finals Day.
Also, a big thank you to Tracey Rye for being the team Manager for the 6 weeks – you did a great job, and I am sure it was appreciated by all players.
Thank you to Dave Rye for Umpiring during the WBBC.
As you can see it is a combined effort of many players and officials to be involved in an event like this, so congratulations to all involved.
Finally, thank you to the WBBC Selectors – again a very difficult job with many members putting their hand up to play and as you can appreciate it is a tough job to put teams together each week.
