Anne Barry Wins the Bucket Competition

And the winner of the Bucket is … Anne Barry!

What a fantastic final this morning, with Anne overcoming Jeffrey Searle in a closely contested best-of-three match, winning 2 games to 1.

A special highlight was having Peter Nicholson himself on hand to present the prized Bucket, while referee Penny Jackson kept a watchful eye on proceedings.

Congratulations to Anne, and well played to Jeffrey for a gallant effort in a terrific final.

A big thank you to all 16 competitors who stepped up to take part this year and Club Captain Andrew Cole for coordinating. The Bucket Competition is a wonderful way to build confidence, improve our games, and put all those new player development learnings into practice.

Well done everyone!
