With the high temperatures, the hot conditions will be a factor for the bowlers.

"It will be hot on the weekend and the players will need to adapt their game to the heat,” Gympie and Districts Indoor Bowls Association secretary Phyllis Kerr said.

The comp will be held at Gympie and District Indoor Bowls Association tomorrow and Sunday from 9.30am on both days.
