The home of the Port City Koalas

An eventful week at Port City

We have adopted a new mascot- the koala, a very topical choice with the unveiling of the koala trail etc in Port Macquarie. In the coming weeks we will also be showing off our new, modern redesigned pennant  uniform. A change in dress code has also been announced for social bowls. Smart casual clothing ( collared shirt), is acceptable along with the usual creams/club colours.

During the week the club hosted the annual NSW Combined High Schools vs Bowls NSW, blue and white teams+ Southern All Stars.
