THE Mt Hagen Bowling Club will host the annual Mondo Merchants Akis Mixed Fours competition over the weekend.

Roika said the national bowling selectors would be present at the competition.
He said apart from the cash prizes, the host association would provide the consolation prices to the participating teams.
