Rugby league old boys from both clubs shared football stories after a rain-affected bowls game ended in a draw

November 14, 2026

Old Boys Spirit Shines Through the Rain

A little rain couldn’t dampen the spirits of the Tathra and Bega rugby league Old Boys, who came together at the Tathra Beach Bowling Club for a friendly game of bowls. The gathering brought together two clubs with a long and storied connection, united on the green for a relaxed afternoon of competition and camaraderie.

With the rain making play inconsistent, the match wrapped up as a draw – a fitting result for a day that was always more about friendship than the final score. Rather than letting the weather put a dampener on things, everyone took shelter inside the club and the afternoon shifted into something just as enjoyable.

Football Stories and Club Connections

Inside the Tathra Beach Bowling Club, the Old Boys from both Tathra and Bega settled in for a great afternoon of football stories. Those kinds of gatherings have a way of bringing the past to life, with memories of old matches, teammates, and moments that never quite get old no matter how many times they’re told.

The day wrapped up with a group photo, a simple but meaningful gesture that captured the strong bond between both clubs. It’s a reminder of what community sport is really about – the relationships built over the years that keep people coming back together long after their playing days are done.

A big thanks to everyone who joined us for the day. Here’s to many more Old Boys gatherings at the Bowlo.
