This is the second year a bowls event has been a part of Moree's Reconciliation Week calendar, and this year it has proven even more popular with 16 teams battling it out on the bowling greens.

A majority of Moree's organisations were represented amongst the teams, and organiser Rod Tighe said it was particularly pleasing to see a police team, including Moree officer-in-charge Inspector Martin Burke, take part.

"It's the first time the police have been here," Mr Tighe said.

"It's a privilege Inspector Burke can give his time.

"We've also got a few more kids involved this year, which is good to see."

Each team consisted of four players, each one having to comprise of at least one Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal member and one female player.

Teams played 16 ends, with two bowls per player. There were Coles gift vouchers and water bottles up for grabs for the winners, as well as touches prizes.

"Overall it's been a happy day," Mr Tighe said.
