The Annual Lawn Bowling Challenge between the lady members of the Suncoasters Lawn Bowling Club and the men of the Pebble Beach Lawn Bowling Club were played on February 17th.
Womens Winner was Linda MacDougall, (Suncoasters)
Mens Winner was Earl Shaner (Mount Dora)
Playing the sport has taken her from Connecticut to California and on to Canada, Australia, Ireland, Scotland and Malaysia.
Now Linda McDougall is situated in Sun City Center, still competing, still teaching and still being bowled over by friends and friendly local action.
Although McDougall retired from international lawn bowling competition as well as the United States National Lawn Bowling Team in 2009, she's still active, helping others learn and spread the word about her favorite sport....
The South East Lawn Bowling Division has launched ad campaigns in Florida and North Carolina.
We have placed an ad in 'Scots Booler', a lawn bowling magazine in Scotland. We have two advertisments which will run in the summer months in the 'Nationwide Bowler'. This publication also has a website that reaches virtually every club in the UK. Finally, the South East Division is placing an ad in the Ontario market in the 'Ontario Book'.
The Division hopes that this further publicity will encourage more to visit the Southeast.
