TIPPING

24th October 2025 - Finally got my tipping program to work and I have the results. Super exciting! We have 3 prizes thanks to Active Bowls in Willetton and the Perth Poker League. We had 5 people correctly guess 24 teams so it was down to who they chose to split them. Those 5 people were Scott Edmonds, Brett Havercroft, Todd Hampshire, Wayne Skuza and Glenn Lynch. 1 person tipped Donna Blackwell to win the ladies but sadly wasn't close with his sectional tipping. Brett chose poorly with his winners so he was out. 2 people correctly tipped Corey Bessant to win, Wayne and Glenn. So who did they tip in the ladies? Laura Butler and Hailey Packer. Hailey making the quarter finals progressed further so our winner will be Wayne Skuza! Congratulations Wayne. Glenn takes out 2nd spot. Our 3rd place though both people tipped Blake Nairn and Laura Butler. The only way to separate is by random wheel spin, so tune in to Mondays video where I will do the draw live on youtube.

Great news this year, we have 3 prizes available to tippers. 1st prize of $100 bowls voucher from Active Bowls in Willetton, thanks again to Dennis who has now sponsored our tipping for a couple of years. Coming on board this year is a new sponsor - the Perth Poker League. Ash Warner is sending more details about in the coming weeks but Belmont and Mt Lawley currently use this Poker League both with great success so look forward to hearing more about it for our fellow Perth Bowlers. They have also donated $100 in bowls vouchers from Active bowls, $60 for 2nd and $40 for 3rd. 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 entry will be allowed per person
-A valid email address will need to be provided (how 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 4th October
