Cromie stars in champions titles

Tyson Cromie is the Geelong Bowls Region 2025/25 Men’s Singles champion.

The Ocean Grove star defeated Queenscliff’s Jackson Reilly in the final 25 to 7.

Cromie also won the Champion of Champions trophy in a thrilling final against Queenscliff’s Matt Lawrence. The match went down to the wire with Cromie prevailing 25 to 24.

Highton’s Sue Kerr won the Women’s Singles Championship, defeating Geelong’s Kerry Gooley 25 to 6.

With one round remaining in the Saturday Premier Division before finals, Ocean Grove has sewn up top spot on the ladder.

The race for second spot is between Highton and Queenscliff with just five points between the two teams. Highton faces fifth placed Drysdale while Queenscliff will need to take all the points against bottom placed City of Geelong to have any chance of leapfrogging into second spot.

The last finals spot is also a close race. Torquay is currently just one point ahead of Drysdale in fourth place.

Torquay should defeat Bell Post Hill while Drysdale faces a tough one against Highton.

Eastern Park remains an outside chance to make finals, but it’s unlikely, especially seeing as it meets Ocean Grove.

Bell Post Hill is two points ahead of City of Geelong. Both teams will want to avoid the wooden spoon.
