Special Club Events
Cullen Shield September – October 2021
This year was a special year for the Cullen Shield as it was played shortly after the passing of Gerald Cullen, who has been a staunch supporter of Nambour Bowls Club and many other local organisations over the years. He will be missed by many and we would like to express our condolences to Gerald’s family and friends.
The 2021 Cullen Shield series was scheduled for September through October this year to take advantage of the warmer weather. Unfortunately, this time of year also means there is a greater possibility of storms. Luckily, only one week was lost to weather, and the finals were played one week later in November.
Sides and teams from Maroochydore, Palmwoods, Woombye, Mooloolaba, Kawana, Glasshouse, Coolum, Yandina and Nambour participated this year making a total of 12 sides. Each side consists of two teams of four players. The sides were randomly assigned positions in the red and blue sections.
The competition consists of five round robin weeks, then a finals evening in which all sides participate. The points accumulated during the round robin games determine the final ladder position of the sides in the red and blue sections. On the finals night, the top side in the red section plays against the top side in the blue section to decide first and second overall placings. All the other sides in the red section play their opposite numbers in the blue section to battle for third and fourth places.
While the finals placings are based on the combined side scores, each night prizes are awarded to the winning and runner-up teams of four players.
