The Leeton and District Bowling Club's over 60s social bowls club are a formidable group, but the one thing they were missing until recently was a uniform of their own.
Now, they've got some brand new shirts for when they are are playing together or visiting other clubs.
"Next year we want to try and organise a couple of trips for bowls, so having these shirts makes us look like a team and it advertises who we are and what we do," club secretary Kevin Hansen said.
"Everyone is very happy with them."
It's been a tough year for the group with COVID-19 having been unable to play for some months.
However, with membership growing, the club is going from strength-to-strength.

The club also raises money for charities and community groups in Leeton shire and hopes to be able to donate some funds to one of these worthy organisations in 2021.
The social club is open to anyone interested in playing, whether they have before or not.
"It's about getting out and socialising, but having a go at playing bowls at the same time," Hansen said.
"We meet every Wednesday at the L&D. In the summer we play in the morning and the winter it's in the afternoon."
Find out more information about this group by contacting Hansen or popping into the L&D.
