Just rack us up

By Justin Flynn A group of Ocean Grove cyclists are pleading with City of Greater Geelong for a bike rack on The Terrace.

The group, which cycles every day and meets outside Mint Cafe on The Terrace, is forced to leave their bicycles on the footpath or hang them from trees.

They say it inconveniences pedes-

trians, local shopkeepers and themselves.

The group says that two designated car parks outside the cafe could easily accommodate a bike rack, while still leaving enough space for two parked cars.

The car park often has three cars parked there, even though it is only designated a two-car parking bay.

“It is a problem with pedestri-

ans getting through and we don’t want that,” group spokesman Allan O’Donoghue said.

“We don’t want to disrupt people and if we did have a bike rack, it would make a huge difference. It’s wanted by the shopkeepers just as much.”

The group is often described as a ‘Men’s Shed on wheels’ given the large number of participants aged over 65 that take part in their morning ride,

finishing with coffee at Mint Cafe.

“It’s important for our physical and mental health to be able to do this,” Mr O’Donoghue said.

“And really anyone from the general public could use the bike rack as well. It’s not just for us.”

The group has approached council and Mr O’Donoghue said early discussions had gone well, but had stalled recently.

“We can see that there are a lot of things in this community that would take priority over this, but it would be well used,” he said.

“We’re not on a witch hunt to council. They have measured it up and the first stage has been done, but it’s taking a little longer than we’d hoped.”

City of Greater Geelong was contacted for comment, but did not respond at the time of going to print.

Building a body

By Justin Flynn Isaac Lynch was being bullied at school and decided to do something about it.

The now 19-year-old hit the gym at age 15 and within a year, the bullying stopped.

Five years on, the Ocean Grover has just been crowned the ICN Men’s Physique Competition Under 21 winner and also took first place in the Arnold Model Search.

“The bullying started when I was 15 so I jumped into the gym,” he said.

“The bullying stopped after a while and I decided to go on with it. I was probably 45kg soaking wet at the time and was copping a hard time. I was your typical skinny kid. It took a year until the bullies saw that I wasn’t so small anymore.”

Isaac's first proper competition was met some trepidation at first, but was a resounding success. It means he will get the opportunity for photo shoots and grow his profile.

While Isaac is technically a bodybuilder, he competes for physique rather than just ultra-huge muscles. Judges are looking at a small waist, wide shoulders and a more ‘natural looking’ body.

Isaac is also completely drug free.

The web designer at Wallington’s WRG knows his training regime inside out.

“To be honest, I’ve studied more about this than I ever did at school,” he said.

“There’s no substitute for good training and a good diet.”

The former Christian College student’s goal is to get a sponsorship. He estimates he spends around $200 a month on supplements and a sponsorship can help alleviate the excessive costs.

Isaac works out daily and while exercise can be a chore for some, it’s not the case for him.

“It’s the best part of the day,” he said.

Isaac got to meet the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger at the competition.

In fact, he got to present an award to him on stage.

“It was awesome - it was all very quick due to security, but he was very cool and collected and happy to take a photo with me regardless of his security rushing around.”

Funds found for good health Community groups and organisations with an interest in the health and wellbeing of people living and working on the Bellarine are being encouraged to apply for funding under the Health and Wellbeing Fund run by Bellarine Community Health.

Chair of the fund’s Advisory Committee Garry Royal said the 2017 round of funding opens from 9am on Friday 7 April for a six-week period.

“The Health and Wellbeing Fund is a great opportunity for local organisations to take action on what they think is important for our community,” Garry said.

Applications are invited across seven categories including physical activity, prevention and management of chronic conditions, sexual health and wellbeing, harm minimisation from alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, mental health, improving access to nutritious and affordable food and improving social connections.

Incorporated community groups and not-for-profit organisations can apply for small grants of up to $5000 and partnership projects of up to $50,000.

More than $148,000 was allocated to 19 projects across the Bellarine in

last year’s inaugural funding round of the Health and Wellbeing Fund.

Funding for a mood support group, a parent food education program and equipment to support participation in social and physical activity were among the projects funded in the Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and Wallington area.

“There is such a strong sense of community here,” Garry said.

“The Health and Wellbeing Fund can really support this community to take a leap towards greater health and wellbeing.”

A series of information sessions have been scheduled to provide applicants with guidance on their ideas and writing their grant application.

A community Advisory Committee of residents from across the Bellarine oversee the management of the Fund and provide funding recommendations to the Bellarine Community Health Board.

For further information about the fund, application forms or information sessions, visit www.bch.org.au/ be-healthy or contact the Grants Officer on 5258 0814 or email h&wfund@ bch.org.au.

Cam’s steely resolve

Officially Australia’s Best Gourmet Pie are heading up for the event.

“It’s great that I will be able to share that moment with them,” he said.

“I’m not the type of person to put my private life out there. I’m not an emotional person either. But sometimes you have to do things like this to help others out. Dad has always said that if this helps just one per-

son, then it’s all worth it.”

Spolding is no stranger to marathon running and has competed in the Lorne Pier to Pub, but a full Ironman is a foreign concept to him, and he is not sure whether he will be bitten by the triathlon bug.

“My wife hopes not,” he said.

However, the long hours of train-

ing are worth it, Cam said, and he has the full backing of his family.

“I’m just so lucky for the support of my wife and my family - they have been amazing,” he said.

Mob of good sports come a-knocking Local sporting organisations have rallied together to help Rotary with its annual Red Cross doorknock.

A social group of cyclists were the first to visit homes around Ocean Grove asking for donations.

Rotary is behind the annual Red Cross Calling initiative, but a lot of its members are not as agile as they used to be and that’s where the sporting groups are helping out.

The cyclists, along with the cricket and football/netball clubs have volunteered their time to help out with collecting donations.

March is Red Cross Calling month and the volunteers will be out collecting in 40 sections of Ocean Grove. Last year Rotary raised $10,000.

Wet weather put a dampener on the cycling group’s planned collection on 21 March, but they were back out there on the Thursday to help.

The cricket club will be next to do the rounds, followed by the football/netball club.

Cam Spolding knows that his first Ironman event will put his body through something that he has never experienced before, but also that it’s nothing compared to what his father, Norm, is preparing for.

Norm was diagnosed with brain cancer last October, and is undergoing treatment for what is his biggest battle.

And that’s why Cam, 38, an avid runner and swimmer, decided to do the Ironman, to raise funds and awareness for this despicable disease.

“I have no understanding of what it will be like for me, when I’m out there, but I’ve honestly never made this about me,” the Wallington resident said.

“For me, this race became the vehicle for putting it out there. The driving force is to do it for him. I have a reason for wanting to succeed. That motivation to do something and raise awareness is what drives me. It’s got nothing to do with me - it all reflects on the type of person he is.”

Spolding’s Ironman debut (a 3.86km swim, followed by a 180.25km bike ride and finishing with a 40.2km run) will be at Port Macquarie on 7 May, and he is busy training full-time for the event under the tutelage of Kate Bramley from Geelong Performance Coaching.

Pushing the pedals to end polio Sea Views Manor residents Bob Harrington, Gwen Butcher and Doris Maskell all had a hand in winning first prize. 166185

They’re old hands

By Justin Flynn After years of trying, but falling just short, Sea Views Manor took out first prize at the Bellarine Agricultural Show’s Joan Golding OAM Perpetual Trophy.

The Ocean Grove aged care facility won top prize in the arts and

crafts section with 17 residents and one group contributing 35 pieces for the judges.

Bob Harrington won first prize overall for his stunning tapestry work.

“It’s all about bringing out what they’ve already got and contributing,“ lifestyle co-ordinator

Glenn Chidzey said.

“Whether it’s first prize or not, it’s about contributing and enhancing their skills.“ Doris Maskell regularly knits for Red Cross and is currently making crocheted cats for the Ocean Grove Medical Clinic to give to children after they have had their immunisations.

“There’s so much variety there," Doris said of the residents’ artworks.

“We were surprised at some of the talent that has come out,“ Mr Chidzey said.

“Art is a great process that brings out the creativity in the mind.“

Fresh from their successful journey to Western Australia for the cycling World Masters Championships, four locals will take part in the Ride the Bellarine.

The ride aims to end polio worldwide and travels around the Bellarine Peninsula. It is organised by Rotary Clubs of Geelong and District.

Bruce Sarah finished 15th in the 65-to-69 time trial, Doug Barrett came runner-up in the over70s time trial, Bill McConnell crossed the line third on the over-70s time trial and Roger Cronk came sixth on the over-70s road race.

All four cyclists will be taking part in the ride, which will be held on Sunday 9 April.

Kids make the cut for cure Two Wallington Primary School students let the clippers take over recently as part of the World’s Greatest Shave.

Year 5 student Jade Willey and Cooper Matthew had their heads shaved all in the name of fighting blood cancer.

Jade raised $1220.

Blood cancer is the third most common cause of cancer death in Australia, claiming more lives than breast cancer or melanoma with 35 people diagnosed every day.

There’s still time to donate to Jade and Cooper’s cause.

Right at the source Ocean Group Playgroup is trying to educate and excite their members - young and old - about the benefits of healthy eating by taking their kids straight to the source, which is virtually on their doorstep.

Lomas Orchards, located on Wallington Road, and established in 1938 is still being farmed by the fourth-generation of the same family.

The staff at Lomas warmly welcomed the playgroup kids who did a tour of the orchard, and picked (and tasted!) many varieties of apples straight off the tree.

They also went strawberry picking, having no trouble filling their buckets and bellies with the abundance of berries that this warm autumn weather is producing.

The staff also provided an apple tasting and education session about the large variety of apples they grow at the orchard.

The kids were fascinated by the different colours, shapes, sizes, tastes and textures the fruit came in.

Ocean Grove Playgroup was the recipient of a Health and Wellbeing Grant from Bellarine Community Health in 2016, and has used this grant to facilitate a variety of programs promoting healthy lifestyles for kids and parents from the very early years.

The grant has allowed the playgroup to run dance, movement, music and martial arts sessions by various groups from the Bellarine Peninsula.

In addition to this, they have replaced their weekly ’snacks’ at playgroup with a box of fruit and vegetables provided by the Ocean Grove Fruit Shop, funded by the grant. At the end of 2016, Ocean Grove Playgroup was recognised as state finalists in the Playgroup of the Year Award and for Playgroup Leader of the Year.

With the season just over a month away, girls are reminded that training nights are Wednesdays, starting at 6.15pm, at Shell Road oval. Game days will be Sunday mornings.

New girls are welcome.

I am part of a reunion committee that are looking for former students and teachers of Lithgow High School as we are holding a Year 10 1977 40-year reunion this coming November.

We are looking for those that were in Year 7 1974, Year 8 1975, Year 9 1976 and Year 10 1977 as there were some students/teachers who either did all those years and some that partially attended through those years. We have also included Year 11 1978 and Year 12 1979 as these students/teachers do not have reunions. Following are names we have not found over the years and we would like to touch base with.

Launch of new Bellarine BSafe website State View with Lisa Neville MP In previous editions of the Voice I have highlighted the important work of the Bellarine Community Safety Group (BCSG).

The BCSG is made up of community representatives from across the Bellarine and local police. I am very pleased to co-chair the group with Assistant Commissioner for Police Tess Walsh.

One initiative taken by the BCSG is the establishment of the Bellarine BSafe Website.

The site allows residents to access information on a range of community safety topics including personal, road and beach safety, as well as crime prevention tips.

It also features live news feeds from a range of emergency services including Victoria Police and provides residents with a one-stop shop for all community safety advice.

This website is a great resource for residents and visitors to get important, up-to- date information on safety within their community.

I encourage all residents to bookmark the new website so they can

quickly and easily access the latest information about their area.

To access the BSafe website go to www.bsafebellarine.com.au State Government sporting grants open I am pleased to advise that a number of State Government Sporting Grants available to clubs have just opened.

The Community Sports Infrastructure Fund (CISF) contributes to the provision of high quality community sport facilities. Applications for this major fund can only be made through the City of Greater Geelong and thus clubs must be working with the council on their project.

Under the CISF significant grants are made available for major and minor facilities within a community.

The Defibrillators for Sporting Clubs grant provides clubs with an opportunity to acquire an automated defibrillator. This grant opened on 24 of March and closes on 3 May. The Country Football and Netball Program provides funding to assist football and netball clubs to

develop facilities up to $100,000 and again application is through the council. This grant opens on 15 May and closes on 26 July.

The Sporting Club Grants Program provides grants of up to $1000 to purchase uniforms and other essential equipment. In addition $2000 grants are available to improve skills of club coaches and administration staff and up to $5000 to allow clubs to strategically plan for the future or increase community participation.

This grant opens on 19 June and closes 19 July.

More information on all sporting grants is available at sport.vic.gov. au/grants-and-programs Good luck to local footy and netball teams With the Bellarine Football and Netball League kicking off on 1 April, I wish all clubs and players the best for season 2017.

Sporting clubs play an important role within all communities, especially in regional and rural areas like the Bellarine.

Of course by providing a game of sport clubs are also promoting a healthy and active lifestyle for

participants. And this is important for people of all ages. For younger members sport also teaches life skills such as leadership and the importance of being a good team member.

Additionally, the social cohesion a club provides to a community and people within that community should not be underestimated. Many people are drawn to a local club, people who otherwise may be socially isolated.

So in wishing all clubs the best for season 2017 I take this opportunity to thank all those people who volunteer their time and efforts in ensuring local clubs continue to serve our communities.

As always, please don’t hesitate to contact me by email or call my office if there are any matters that I may be able to assist you with directly.

Ocean Grove locals thriving on the nbn™ network Authored by Loretta Willaton The nbn™ network continues to roll out across Australia and is already having an impact on residents in Ocean Grove. At Telstra, we’re proud to announce that thousands of customers across the region are now thriving on the nbn™ network. Since the launch of nbn™ services in the area in July 2016, more than 13,200 homes and businesses have access to fast and reliable internet, offering Ocean Grove, Point Lonsdale, Breamlea, Barwon Heads and Queenscliff residents the opportunity to create brilliantly connected homes and businesses.

With nbn™ co predicting the average number of connected devices in the home will reach 29 by 2020*, locals may find their homes getting smarter a lot sooner than they think and Telstra wants to help locals embrace their nbn™ network connection and thrive in this new digital era.

Technology we used to perceive as a part of the distant future, like touch pad door locks and switching on the lights from the office, is already here and available to Ocean Grove residents with Telstra Smart Home. Ocean Grove has a large community of holiday home owners and these technologies are ideal to help them manage their homes and let guests enter their properties with a key code, eliminating the hassle of exchanging keys.

You can sign up to Telstra Smart Home on a 24 month subscription and choose from one of two Smart Home starter kits. Automation and Energy Starter Kit allows you to conserve energy and automate your home with Smart Power Plugs, sensors for your doors or windows and a motion sensor. Watch and Monitor Starter Kit allows you to keep an eye on your home, family and pets with a camera and sensors for your doors or windows.

Getting Connected How do I switch to nbn™ network? You’ll need to place an nbn™ order with a service provider like Telstra. Local Telstra technicians and store staff have received special training to make sure you have a smooth transition, with minimal disruption to your current internet and phone services.

Telstra are uniquely positioned to help customers switch to nbn™ services with our popular bundles, as well as voice-only and broadband plans, local technical teams and customer service, and more than 100 years’ experience in connecting Australians.

The local guide for dining on the Bellarine...

Fresh look at old favourite While the Cheeky Cow has successfully stood the test of time, it has never rested on its laurels.

The popular Collendina cafe has always enticed locals and holidaymakers for its superb food and delicious coffee and that won’t change.

But the Cheeky Cow will now turn its attention to serving homemade fare, fresh and hearty.

A new menu is on its way and an emphasis will be placed on freshly made desserts, cakes and slices to go with the outstanding breakfast and lunch options. They will also expand on their old favourites.

Right across the road from Col-

lendina Beach, the Cheeky Cow is child and dog friendly and employs local young people.

People enjoy the delightful outdoor space and there’s a steady stream of customers wanting their regular caffeine fix from the friendly and welcoming staff.

The cafe will also shift towards providing healthy take-away options and of course there’s always ice cream - in a cone or by the scoop.

Cheeky Cow is at 13 Ocean Thoroughway and can be contacted on 5255 1677 - or check out www. cheekycow.com.au - and is open from 8am to 3pm daily.

Rolling with the times As school holidays approach, Rollerway is again gearing up for one of its busiest times of the year.

Centre manager Ashlie Apracio says there is nothing like seeing kids “who can barely do up their skates” learn to skate in a matter of minutes.

“It inspires me to keep training myself,” says the Australian Inline Hockey team rep.

Ashlie has skated almost since learning to walk and grew up playing hockey at the Newtown rink.

She’s the fourth generation of the 40-year-old family business.

“My great grandfather helped my grandparents as their skate mechanic at this centre,” she says.

And now, with her nephews hitting the rink, the fifth generation is raring to go.

Ashlie’s father Raul, who owns the centre, reckons skating is perfect for family fun.

“Anyone can have a go, regardless of age; from one-yearolds to their grandparents,” he says.

“Generations of people who have skated here as little kids have come back here as adults, with kids of their own.”

Rollerway even caters for

birthdays, a fun, active and great-value alternative to children’s parties, according to Raul.

Hundreds of kids and adults will roll up to the centre to hire skates for its holiday sessions, Ashlie says.

“I think the key is the amazing atmosphere we create - who doesn’t like music and bright lights?”

Rollerway Skate Centre is open every day over the holidays at 6-8 Lambert Avenue, Newtown.

Phone 0411 335 544 or visit rollerway.com.au for information and opening times.

The unsporting season is a bit sad Rufous fantail. 166339

White-throated treecreeper.

166339

Kevin's photograph of a red-capped plover. 166339 the bird before it disappeared into the bushes.

I also took a group to Anakie Gorge (or should I say I was meant to but nobody showed up). I had a lovely time out there trying out my newly learned camera skills on the white-throated treecreepers.

I had a wonderful day at Western Treatment Plant with Tom. The weather was glorious and the birds were out in force. The highlights were seeing a young spotted harrier (magnificent bird) and around 80 other spe-

cies. Many migratory waders were in breeding plumage, and preparing to fly to the Northern Hemisphere, and I expect that there will be a lot less birds at WTP when I next go there.

I thought I’d take a detour to Point Henry on my way to work one day, as there are usually some raptors there, and we all know that a raptor a day keeps the doctor away. Anyway as I was driving towards the now defunct Alcoa Plant I looked at one of the large power poles and thought that there was a person climbing on one, such was the size of a creature that was on it.

We conserve, present and enhance the natural & developed coastal environs for the enjoyment and use of all

BARWON COAST

As I approached I realised that the animal on the pole was in fact the biggest raptor of them all, a wedge-tailed eagle, and it was a young fledgling going by the white feathers on the underside.

What a magnificent sight.

It cheered me up no end to see such a impressive bird on such a beautiful day when I was on my way to work.

I also saw a raptor when I went to Day on the Green in Geelong, and I hope that the black-shouldered kite was enjoying Don Henley as much as I was.

I received a lovely email from Kevin, who had a closer encounter with a red-capped plover at Point Lonsdale.

Thanks so much for sending in your beautiful photos Kevin.

Dogs are continuing to prove challenging along our coast. We encourage enjoyment of the coastline with your companion, however many continue to flaunt the dog regulations. The coastline is for the use and enjoyment by all, and protection of our natural assets is a high priority; hence why dog controls are in place.

This time of the year, dogs are only permitted off-leash between 7W and 13W Ocean Grove, 30W and 34W 13th Beach, and 36W and 40W 13th Beach. West of 13W and the estuary beaches on both Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads, dogs MUST BE ON A LEASH at all times.

Dogs are not permitted off-leash until 1st May.

Barwon Coast is a Committee of Management appointed by the State Government with responsibility for the management of 13km of coastal crown land from 7W Collendina to 42W Blue Rocks, Barwon Heads covering our beautiful beaches in Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and 13thBeach.

Our Committee members are local residents appointed with consideration of the skills and experience that they have to offer in the management of this important piece of coastline.

We all have a duty of care to protect and share this amazing coastline; please help us educate others.

FESTIVAL OF THE SEA

In November last year, Barwon Coast and the Ocean Grove Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC), after a lengthy multi staged tender process, appointed architects Wood Marsh to develop the plans for the new Surf Beach Complex that will house the Dunes Café and the SLSC.

This year’s Festival of the Sea has been and gone. The week of events engaged students from Barwon Heads Primary School who attended a variety of activities from rockpool rambles, science night and citizen science buddies. In addition to this the volunteers organised a surf film night, arts connections workshops, Seachange Quilters exhibition, Latte and limpets, Arts Trail walk, and pot luck dinner. The main event on the Sunday was well attended and provided for all interests from environmental stalls, craft stalls, cultural stalls, and amazing arts displays from members of the public and the Barwon Heads Primary School. There was plenty of food and entertainment and the weather was superb for the full week of activities. Barwon Coast would like to acknowledge the festival organisers and volunteers for contributing their time into an outstanding array of activities that engaged participants to learn about our amazing landscape.

BARWON BLUFF MARINE SANCTUARY The Barwon Bluff Marine Sanctuary is a pristine and significant place. Both the land based and marine ecosystems provide valuable habitat for our native plants and animals. Exploring the natural values of the Bluff is encouraged and is one reason why it exists. This area is for research, education and passive recreation. It is a ‘no take’ zone, which means fishing is prohibited, and all plants, animals, rocks and other biological items must remain. Dogs are also prohibited the entire length of the marine sanctuary.

For more information about the Bluff contact Parks Victoria or Friends of the Bluff; both have websites.

UNDERSTANDING DOG CONTROLS The onus is on each individual to understand where they can and cannot take their dogs, what is acceptable dog behaviour, and what is acceptable dog owner behaviour.

Go to www.barwoncoast.com.au for the existing dog control orders, or pick one up from our office, or email us your details to receive a hard copy.

OCEAN GROVE SURF BEACH COMPLEX:

Wood Marsh through a series of design workshops have progressed their work to the point that the schematic design is largely agreed. That design has been reviewed by the Office of Victorian Government Architect and very positive feedback provided to the Project Control Group.

The next steps include lodging a planning permit application with the City of Greater Geelong; releasing the plans for public comment and beginning the detailed design development.

As this important community building progresses we will keep the community updated.

31W Beach Access – ‘Cylinders’ on 13th Beach Road Now the summer crowds have thinned and the work demands created by the peak season have reduced work has resumed on the construction of the replacement staircase at beach access 31W. The 20 metre high staircase is expected to be completed by May 2017. Barwon Coast thanks the community for its patience during the planning and construction phases of this important project.

The start of autumn is always tinged with a bit of sadness for me, as it coincides with the start of the horrible duck shooting season.

Beautiful, gentle creatures are shot in the name of 'sport’ or 'recreation’ or 'fun’ and I just can’t understand how it is allowed to happen. Lake Murdeduke was not closed to duck hunting, despite the presence of the buff-breasted sandpiper and ruff and hundreds of other migratory shorebirds that had made the lake their home over the summer.

What a crazy world we live in that guns win over the peaceful love of nature. I forget sometimes that I have to avoid wetlands and stumble across people shooting and it really is dreadful.

So when I see a duck in the next few months I will talk to it and tell it how fortunate it is that it has not been blown to smithereens.

I had a lovely weekend a few weeks ago at the Birdlife Photography Conference that was held at the Deakin Waterfront Campus. I learned that there is an awful lot that I don’t know about cameras.

A young man from Canon Collective named Jay, who is a wildlife photographer and guide, talked for a few sessions about taking wildlife photos with a Canon camera, and he was just incredible with his knowledge and skill.

He tried to sell me a Canon 500mm lens that was on special for over $11,000. Three months wages on a lens was a bit beyond my budget, but I certainly had lens envy when he displayed his lens kit. Maybe in my next life I might be able to afford it.

I took a few of the photographers to the Ocean Grove Nature Reserve, and we saw a rufous fantail on the Banksia Track, which certainly was a highlight.

Rufous fantails are incredibly hard to photograph, and this one proved no exception, but we all got a good look at

Grove lose title by two Ocean Grove suffered a heartbreaking loss to Queenscliff in the Geelong Bowls Region Pennant grand final.

The Grovers went down by two shots at Belmont in the season decider after entering the match as hot favourites.

Both sides won two rinks each, but it was Queenscliff which defied the odds and emerged triumphant. Queenscliff scored three shots during a tense final end to claim its first Premier premiership in 11 years.

Down for most of the day, Grove launched a stinging fightback, leading by five shots with two ends left to play. With one end left, Grove held a oneshot lead, but Queenscliff rallied and won by two shots.

However, Ocean Grove Midweek Pennant teams have continued to show their dominance in the Geelong Bowls Region by claiming three premierships in Division One, Two and Four.

The Grovers’ top side - and defending champions - at one stage struggling after round 11 of the home and away season, were ninth and in danger of relegation.

Something clicked and from that moment the Grovers made every week count as they went on a rampage of wins not dropping a match for the remainder of the season.

Semi-final victory against Queenscliff followed by a preliminary final win against City of Geelong set up the showdown with top side and minor premier Highton.

On the greens at Belmont, Ocean Grove displayed their ability and strength to overrun the Highton team with convincing wins on all three rinks.

Joan Tennent 32-17 was in fine touch as was Lorraine Kirk’s Grover team 22-14 while Club Champion Faye Richardson showed why she is one of the best players in the Geelong Bowls Region skipping her rink to a 24-16 victory.

The premiership win now brings the Grovers the opportu-

This event will be played at Moama in May. The Grover Twos capped off a magnificent season in what turned out to be a tough encounter with Geelong Cement.

Sixty ends of the scheduled 75 and it was the Grovers in front by two shots. Marianne Rogan along with Muriel Williams, Judith Jenkins and Bob Poole held the sway of the overall board leading their rink by seven after 20 ends.

The closing stages of the final fluctuated on the major board with Cement hitting the front before the Rogan team carded back to back fours which basically sealed the deal for the Grovers.

Rogan 28-17 was the result which was enough to cover the narrow losses to the Val Cook team 18-21 and Marlene Sutton’s 16-20.

The third premiership came the way of the Division Four side that were at one stage throughout the year were in a similar situation to the Division One side. Struggling to get consistency and regular wins, they found form and climbed up the ladder.

Going head to head in the final dance with Geelong Cement, the Grover’s got off to a flyer due to the 15-0 start after five ends on the Joyce Fraser skipped rink.

As things progressed the Fraser team continued to score heavily but at the same stage the Lorraine Vincent led team were finding the going tough as they were behind 4-15.

Val Crumbie with Heather Allan, Marene Turnley and Harold Curwood carded 10 shots in four ends and they were away.

The momentum was with the Grover’s from then and they were never really headed as team Fraser with Bryan Olsen, Lorraine Redford and John Izzard finished strong taking the match 33-16. Crumbie added six in the last three ends to come away 29-16 winners which together was enough to offset the Vincent 22-28 deficit.

Saturday Pennant Division five were not so fortunate in their Saturday Pennant grand final against Eastern Park.

One hundred ends of tough hard fought bowls come down to the final end and final bowl as Ocean Grove’s Ron Todd held the Grovers’ fate in his hands as he delivered the final rock. Three shots down on the master board with one bowl to play, Todd needed to trail the jack two feet for four but just came up short.

Adele Ryan, Judith Jenkins, Lorraine Kirk and Pat Virtue did all they could to push the scores in Grove’s favour with their 3118 rink win. Narrow losses by 4,5,6 to Todd, Billy Ryan and Jim Rogan was enough to mean bridesmaids for season 201617.

Cobras go on the attack Collendina produced a bowling masterclass with a staggering turnaround to clinch the BPCA A Grade title in a nail-biting win over Barwon Heads at Portarlington on Sunday 19 March.

The Cobras became the first side to be undefeated in a season since Ocean Grove won the A Grade flag back in 1994/95.

It was Collendina’s third A Grade flag with wins in 2010, 2012 and in 2017.

Cobra pair Ben Ricardo and Richie Peters have both played in Collendina’s three A Grade titles.

The Seagulls were in a strong position on day two resuming at 1/18 after bowling out the Cobras for 100, their lowest total for the season.

Needing 83 runs with - nine wickets in hand - Barwon Heads collapsed to be out for 91 and lost its last five wickets for seven runs.

Ron Evans Oval in Portarlington was the scene of Collendina’s last A Grade premiership triumph against Ocean Grove five years ago in 2012.

“That was always in the back in our minds,” coach Corey Walter said.

Walter said his side had belief it could win from any position as the Cobras erased the demons from last year’s grand final loss to Anglesea.

“We said the night before and the morning of day two that in grand finals strange things can happen and anything can happen,” Walter said .

“You are never out of it - it is hard chasing.

“We came here with belief and that was going to get us over the line.”

It was a double celebration for Cobras after Collendina 1 defeated Drysdale to capture the D Grade flag.

Andy Higgins worked tirelessly for the Snakes. 166259 Warren medallist Jye Hearps (3/8), who won the Warren Medal for manof-the-match honours, all grabbed three wickets.

Seagull Damian McMahon took a three-wicket haul (3/29) on day one and the prized scalp of Corey Walter for 35, dismissed with a brilliant leg side stumping from keeper Simon Seignor.

“Damo (McMahon) bowled amazingly well, a couple of big wickets for him, amazing keeping (from Seignor),” said Barwon Heads skipper Sam Schaller, who claimed 3/20 from 24 overs.

Seagull all-rounder Lachlan Campbell (47) played an outstanding innings on day two when he neared a halfcentury.

Barwon Heads went into tea break at 5/84 and required 17 runs for the win.

The Cobras got on a roll after the interval as Higgins changed ends and a fresh Hearps mopped up the Seagulls’ tail.

Schaller said it was a frustrating loss.

“It was tough to take, you know 99 times out of 100 you expect to chase down 100,” he said.

“Full credit to Collendina.”

A hard slog, but flag eludes Ocean Grove Ocean Grove’s bid for a Bellarine Peninsula Cricket Association C Grade premiership fell at the final hurdle.

The Grubbers were beaten by reigning premiers Jan Juc in a high-quality game at Jan Juc. Batting first, Grove started slowly, but made it to a credible 154 just before stumps on day one.

Captain Greg Scarpa survived a confident caught behind decision to post another halfcentury, out for an even 50.

Son Nathan Scarpa steadied the innings as opener and made a patient 30 in a 55-run stand with his father.

Jay Dawson chipped in with 28, but Ben Hanson (11) was the only other player to reach double figures.

Grove had a few overs before stumps, but couldn’t make inroads.

Grove was a slight chance

A superb five-wicket haul from paceman Scott Grant helped Collendina to the D Grade Bellarine Peninsula Cricket Association premiership.

The Cobras finished top of the ladder after the home-andaway season and demolished Drysdale in the final at Collendina in perfect conditions on Saturday 18 March.

Grant took 5/21 for the Snakes and bowled superbly to win the Petrie Medal awarded to the best player on the day.

Collendina batted first and made 6/206 from its 40 overs.

Regular partnerships were the key to the very competitive total. Ryan Jones (29) and Eddie Ellwood (23) put on 47 for the first wicket and at 2/142, the Cobras were set for a mamoth total. Matt De Jong (58), Matt Davies (41) and Mark Fletcher (21 not out) made certain of it.

Drysdale needed just more than five runs an over to claim the title and needed a good start, but it never came.

The Hawks were 2/7 before a handy 40-run stand in which David Willis (29) had a major hand. At 5/56 only Rus-

Mark Walton (36 from 37 balls) played a cameo, but the Hawks were eventually dismissed for 116.

Dave Treharne took 2/12 from seven overs for the Snakes and formed a lethal combination with Grant.

A hold on silverware makes them the pride of the town Collendina won a tense and thrilling Bellarine Peninsula Cricket Association A Grade grand final against Barwon Heads. The Cobras were almost down and out after day one, having made only 100 with Barwon Heads in a good position at 1/18. At tea, it looked like the Heads had done enough for a hard-earned win, being 5/84, needing just 17 runs. But Jye Hearps and Andy Higgins produced some heroics with the ball and the Seagulls were bowled out for 91, handing the Cobras their third A Grade premiership.

Grove heads in as a player

By Mark Heenan OCEAN GROVE LAST SEASON’S FINISH: Sixth.

Ocean Grove heads into 2017 as a genuine flag hopeful after the recruitment of multiple-premiership-winning coach Paul Lynch.

The Grubbers have landed some big signings in the off-season including gun player Brent Macleod who joins as a playing assistant coach to help premier on-baller James Linton.

Key position stocks Jake Carmody and Peter Hardy have arrived, while dynamite forward Daniel Maloney re-

turns to the Grubbers after a stint with St Joseph’s in the GFL. Young stars, including last season’s under-18 best-and-fairest winner Rhys Hobbs, Riley Maloney, James Peers and Mitch Lindkvist, will all be pushing for senior selection.

The Grubbers missed finals in 2016 in their first season at its new home base at Ray Menzies Oval at Shell Road.

Ocean Grove kicks off their season against Portarlington in round one and will play eight of its first 13 matches at home.

ARRIVALS: Ryan Bell (Redan), Jake Carmody (Colac), Adam Gerdtz (Minyip-Murtoa), Peter Hardy (Anglesea), Brent Macleod (new assistant playing coach - Thomson), Daniel Maloney (St Joseph’s), Adam Marangon (Old Melburnians), Emmett Maloney (Sebastopol), Cam Marchbank (Grovedale), Corey Walter (Bell Park).

DEPARTURES: David King (St Joseph’s), Josh Milnes (Geelong West), Mickitja Rotumah-Onus (Nightcliff Darwin-based league), Mark Laidler (retired).

“My plan when I arrived at the club was to firstly follow the same model at Colac - was try and get all the good Ocean Grove kids back to the club.

Then we identified (what) we needed for the football club to be successful - one of them was midfielders to help James (Linton) and the other one was key forwards to compliment the small forwards. Macleod fits that bill as a midfielder and Jake (Carmody) is obviously a key forward.”
