Yamba’s victorious No 3 Pennants team

And the celebrations and accolades for our State Pennant No 3 Flag winners continue with a glowing tribute to the team from both C.E.O. Phil Boughton and Club President Ian Lauder at the Friday night raffles – to the delight and applause of all present.  

Also, must make mention of the wonderful support of Manager Kaye Mason – a hugely important part of the team. How proud we are of this wonderful achievement and already these intrepid ladies have their sights set on another State Flag next year – and why not? With their bowling skill and dedication to practice and perfecting their game anything is possible. They are hungry – so look out Pennant 2023 – here they come!
