TIPPING

19th October 2026 - The draw is out for the State Fours this weekend and it's exciting to showcase the new tipping page. You will need to register and log in for all your state event and pennant tipping, and this is the page to do it.
Not sure about prizes at this stage, that will be advised. I will also be having a leaderboard across all the state event tipping comps this year, no prizes just an honour thing and a bit of fun.
The same rules as normal apply -

-If there is a withdrawal from a section and you have tipped them then that tip will count as a loss, unless you re-enter. (I will try to announce replacements if known)
-the person with the most correct tips will take 1st prize, 2nd most = 2nd and 3rd most = 3rd prize
-In the event of a tiebreaker, the person you select as the winner will split the tiebreakers. Because we have 2 state winners, both winners are deemed equal value, ie tipping the man isn't better than tipping the woman. The highest position either of your tipped winners finish, will win the prize if it is better than other tied tippers. If it is still equal either by the same selection or the same round loser, it will be decided by random.
-Entries close 9am on the 24th October

GOOD LUCK!

COUNTRY PENNANTS

18th October - there were some country pennants completed yesterday so I have added a tab for country pennant results as well as the city pennant results when they start up. Only those country leagues that use Bowlslink will have results displayed and will only be results, there won't be a pre-game area for teams named etc. A skippers table will also be generated. It will show all the country results being mens and ladies Midweek as well as Saturday competitions.

CLUB NEWS

17th October - The South Perth Bowling Club has secured the well-known comedian, Austen Tayshus for a one-off performance on Thursday, November 5 as part of his “43rd Anniversary of Australiana” National Tour.

The 8pm start allows bowlers time to freshen-up after midweek pennants and get to South Perth Bowling Club with tickets just $40 for the 90-minute show.
His show at Jadran Winery the following evening is completely sold out.
Tickets can be secured using the QR code on the image or at https://www.trybooking.com/DQQKE

TIPPING

1st October - The fixture has been released for the upcoming season, Click Here for the release from Bowls WA.
In related news, I have for this season created a pennant tipping competition. Clicking the link above will take you to the tipping page. Here, all future state event tipping and the pennant tipping will be located. It now uses a database to store the tips, so it is easier to register yourself if you want to tip for the season ahead. Registration is pretty simple, and the data will only be available to me. If you want your identity to remain anonymous then you can select a "username" which will be whats visible on the ladders, but I will also require an email and an actual name. Prizes may or may not occur, announcements regarding that will be made soon.
So go ahead, register yourself, more rules around the tipping for pennants will be made closer to the start of the season but for now, try and break it and let me know if you do so I can fix before the season proper. And don't worry about tipping now, you have the ability to change your tips right up until the start time of the game.

TIPPING

So for now, tipping for the champion of champions is open, no prizes, just the pleasure of participating in my testing and then bragging rites. See how you go, give me feedback and if it doesn't work, take a screenshot and send to me at info@bowls360.com.au and claude.ai can fix it for me.

IMPROVEMENTS

The winner will get a $100 voucher courtesy of Perth Bowls Centre, thanks again to Dennis Pattullo for all your support this year. 2nd prize will be $50 courtesy of Perth Poker League.
3rd spot goes to Phil Park on 18 tips, shame he didn't get 1 more section as he correctly tipped the winner of the womens comp! But 3rd place is all he gets and a $25 voucher thanks again to Perth Poker League.

The same rules as normal apply -

-If there is a withdrawal from a section and you have tipped them then that tip will count as a loss, unless you re-enter. (I will try to announce replacements if known)
-You can enter as many times as you like but the latest entry will be the official entry.
-Only 1 final entry will be allowed per person
-A valid email address will need to be provided (how else can I contact you if you use a fake name) otherwise the tip can't win a prize
-the person with the most correct tips will take 1st prize, 2nd most = 2nd and 3rd most = 3rd prize
-In the event of a tiebreaker, the person you select as the winner will split the tiebreakers. Because we have 2 state winners, both winners are deemed equal value, ie tipping the man isn't better than tipping the woman. The highest position either of your tipped winners finish, will win the prize if it is better than other tied tippers. If it is still equal either by the same selection or the same round loser, it will be decided by random.
-Entries close 9am on the 11th April

Lisa Featherby v Helen Heal
Jennifer Parker v Therese Hastings

19th January 2026 - Day 1 of the State Singles is done, a huge upset with Lisa Smith knocking out the reigning champ Kristina Van Nierop in sectional play. The fancied men have progressed to next Saturday as well, if you don't want to scroll through 120 sections to see who won I've done that for you, plus knockout games and full draw for next week

TIPPING

24th January 2026 - We have a winner! but we don't have a 2nd and 3rd place yet. ?Our winner with 78 correct tips was Wayne Skuza! Congratulations Wayne, i will be emailing your winning voucher from Active Bowls in Willetton shortly to you. 2nd and 3rd however were tied, Callum Alberti and Graeme Alp both with 76 correct tips. Callum has selected Daniel Trewhella and Laura Butler and Graeme has gone Blake Nairn and Kristina Van Nierop. So it all comes down to results this weekend! Full results for all tippers now posted.

16th January 2026 - Some news. First congratulations to Scott Walker who won his World bowls game over night against David Gourlay, he doesn't play his second game until next Thursday which means he won't competing in the state singles starting Sunday. His section then becomes a 1 game match, so if you need to change your tip you can email directly to me at [email protected] and you can advise the change of tip
Second it has been pointed out to that sections 30-32 have not been included. I didn't even notice until 48 people had tipped so it's too late to reset, apologies to those bowlers but they won't be in the tipping comp

9th January 2026 - Now that the draw has been released, we can also announce the tipping is open.
We have 3 prizes available to tippers. 1st prize of $100 bowls voucher from Active Bowls in Willetton, thanks again to Dennis Pattullo who has now sponsored our tipping for a couple of years. Perth Poker League have again sponsored 2nd prize of $60 and 3rd prize of $40.
The same rules as normal apply -

-If there is a withdrawal from a section and you have tipped them then that tip will count as a loss, unless you re-enter. (I will try to announce replacements if known)
-You can enter as many times as you like but the latest entry will be the official entry.
-Only 1 final entry will be allowed per person
-A valid email address will need to be provided (how else can I contact you if you use a fake name) otherwise the tip can't win a prize
-the person with the most correct tips will take 1st prize, 2nd most = 2nd and 3rd most = 3rd prize
-In the event of a tiebreaker, the person you select as the winner will split the tiebreakers. Because we have 2 state winners, both winners are deemed equal value, ie tipping the man isn't better than tipping the woman. The highest position either of your tipped winners finish, will win the prize if it is better than other tied tippers. If it is still equal either by the same selection or the same round loser, it will be decided by random.
-Entries close 9am on the 18th January

GOOD LUCK!

A $100 gift voucher from Perth Bowls Centre will find it's way to you.
2nd spot however was shared with 3 people - Callum Alberti, Clive Adams and Muzza Hubba. They all tipped the Van Nierop/Butler combination so it came down to the men. 3 different tips as well. So in 2nd spot tipping the winners in Nairn/Trewhella was Muzza, well done to you, a $50 voucher courtesy of Perth Poker League will find it's way to you.
So who got third? Clive and Callum both tipped themself, Callum didn't get out of his section and Clive did, which means Clive will be getting a $25 voucher courtesy of Perth Poker League. Both vouchers to be used at Perth Bowls Centre
