CO vs Southland Tournament played at Invercargill on Sunday 30 November 2025.

Well done to our team who, again, braved less than ideal conditions for the annual fixture between Central Otago and Southland. This year it was Southland's turn to host us at Waihopai Bowling Club who did a fantastic job of making us all feel welcome. Great camaraderie between all of the players and we look forward to seeing most of them again on Friday in Roxburgh when we play the Triangular.

CO Development Women won 1 from 6: CO Open Women won 4 from 6
Congratulations to Southland who took the overall win 7 games to 5.
