#BPL13: Ospreys add another title to dynasty
The Tweed Heads Ospreys’ Bowls Premier League (BPL) dynasty is now complete, claiming the #BPL13 title to make it their third championship in four events.
The Ospreys were the dominant side all week at #BPL13 at Club Pine Rivers, dropping just one match on their way to winning the trophy and $25,000 cheque.
The Ospreys join the Sydney Lions as the most successful BPL franchise, with three titles each.
Taking on the Murray Steamers in a semi-final, the Ospreys managed their way through to the grand final thanks to some Aaron Teys magic.
Earlier in the night, home-team Brisbane Pirates were bundled out in straight sets by a dominant Lions outfit.
Ryan Bester was on song in the preliminary final against the Lions, steering his side into a second final in three events.
The Ospreys capped off an unbelievable week, with a thumping win over the Steamers in the final to make it back-to-back titles.
Tweed’s Aaron Teys was rewarded for his dominant week at #BPL13, claiming the tournament’s MVP award, his second.
