Our club doesn’t often receive the opportunity to host a Bowls World Champion but that’s what we will be doing next Wednesday at 1230.

MIKE KERNAGHAN was a member of the Four which won gold at the 2016 World Championships in Christchurch ( look at that score!) and he has enthusiastically agreed to chat with Raumati members on the 2nd October.

Mike has multiple national titles to his credit plus a Commonwealth Games Singles bronze and an Asia Pacific Pairs silver medal from Broadbeach this year.

He is also the Chief Executive of the Cancer Society of New Zealand and has applauded the club on our decision to supply hats which are Cancer Society approved.

Please support this club initiative if you can.

 1230 Wednesday 2nd October
