    Standing on the podium with her best mate is the fondest memory of Jo Edwards' bowls career

    Standing on the podium with her best mate is the fondest memory of Jo Edwards' bowls career


    The multi-World Championship and Commonwealth games gold medallist has retired after two decades at the top of the sport.

    Edwards says playing alongside Val Smith has been a constant during her career, including their World Championship pairs win in 2008.



    Jo Edwards played 646 times for New Zealand, winning Commonwealth Games golds in 2002, 2014 and 2018.
