SUVA Bowling Business House sponsors Pacific Energy have landed themselves a spot in the semi-finals.

Games Committee Chairman Samuela Tuikiligana said their inclusion in the semi-final had come as a surprise.

“There were a few surprises in the tournament and this is one of them. There were a few national representatives in the team but they are overseas so it will be interesting to see the outcome for the weekend,” he said.

Along with Pacific Energy KJ Constructions, HUMES and FINTEL are the other semi-finalists in the 10-week competition.

“These are the teams that are in the running for the cup and I can tell that they are ready for competition this Thursday to battle for who makes it to the final,” he said.

National representatives who were part of the respective teams have travelled to New Zealand for the Asia Pacific Championships. Tuikiligana said their performance at the tournament in New Zealand was crucial as it determined their participation in the world bowls event.
