More 'Booty' for the Pt Chev Bowls Pirates Treasure Chest!
Talented junior Pirate bowlers Alex Reed, Aiden Takarua and Colin Williams (all under 25 yo), won one of the most prestigious titles on the junior calendar this Waitangi weekend.
The Milford 5000 competition is one of New Zealand's richest junior tournaments. A two day triples event between 32 teams, with players competing for the Dorreen Preston Cup and the $1,500 winner's purse.
Alex and Colin are 1-5 yr bowlers and Aiden is a 1-8yr bowler.
