Gloury seven-time Horsham singles champ
Horsham City Bowling Club Men’s 2025-26 Singles Championship was concluded over the New Year break, with Daniel Gloury winning his seventh championship.
In the final Gloury defeated last year’s winner Kevin Clyne to claim the blue-ribbon title.
In a high-standard game, Gloury produced some amazing bowls when Clyne was holding the shot with his bowls closes to the kitty.
Onlookers watching the game were treated to some bowls as good as in any Australian championship.
In the semi-finals Gloury defeated John Burchill and Clyne defeated Billy Hogan.
Gloury is presently playing pennant bowls on permit with Bendigo Bowls Club in the Bendigo Campaspe Premier League.
Club president John Williams said the final was the best bowls he had seen at the club and congratulated Gloury on his achievement.
Williams also thanked the organisers and volunteers who helped to run the championship event.
