Talent you can Bank on 


Picture
Gary, Keith & James

For the first time at Torquay Bowls club there are 3 generations of the one family playing Pennant and representing the club in competitive bowls.
Keith, Gary and James Banks now all bowl for Torquay since Keith and his wife Betty moved in August 2014 to Torquay to live.
Keith has bowled for many years at the Montmorency Bowls Club where he was a pennant bowler and club coach, teaching many bowlers to master the "bowlers arm".  Keith is 82 years young and recently won the Club Veterans Singles Championship for his newly adopted club with the aid of his own bowlers arm.
Gary has been a member of Torquay Bowls Club since 1986, when he and wife Tracey moved from Melbourne to reside.  Gary has won Premier Division Pennants with Geelong West and Highton, but decided to return to Torquay in 2007/08 with the desire to play pennant with his son James.  Gary has won many club and Group championships, but rates the Division 1 Saturday Pennant in 2008 as one of his most enjoyable as it was Torquay's first Division 1 Saturday Pennant in the history of the club.
James is now 23 but has bowled with Torquay Bowls Club since he was 13.  James has developed into being an excellent bowler and representative of our club.  He was part of the Deakin University Bowls team that won a gold medal in the Australian University Games.  James skips in Division 1 Saturday Pennant but won his first pennant in Division 4 in 2008 when he was just 16.  He has great hopes to skip our Division 1 to a premiership this season before he moves to Melbourne to work as a lawyer.
