The Ingham Bowls Club played host to its milestone 25th Annual Invitation Fours Carnival over the weekend of 27–28 July, welcoming teams from across North Queensland. Rain threatened to delay proceedings on Saturday morning, but with a later start time, the skies eventually cleared, the green dried out, and play got underway as planned. From that point on, it was smooth sailing across two days of high-quality, spirited competition on the green.
Teams travelled from far and wide, including Cairns, Innisfail, Tully, Townsville, Hughenden, Proserpine and Ingham. Congratulations to the winning team from Jubilee, who took out top honours after a consistent and strategic showing across the weekend.
The club extended its sincere thanks to all participating teams for their support, and to the many hardworking volunteers who made the event possible, from prepping the greens to keeping the refreshments flowing. Special thanks also go to the generous sponsors who contributed to the weekend's success. The Ingham Bowls Club looks forward to seeing everyone back in 2026 for another fantastic weekend of bowls.
