Senior Pairs Decided

Saturday 12 January saw the finals of the mens and womens senior pairs played.

Some great bowls were played in fantastic conditions. The sun was shining and there was enough wind to blow the flag but not too much.

In the womens final the experienced Joan Smith and Sue Meyer played Feona Sayles and Desire Lambert. It was a great match but in the end the young guns won hot from playing together at the Nationals in Christchurch where they got to the semi-finals. Congratulations Feona and Desire.

In the mens final were the partnerships Phil Skogland and Wayne Sellars playing Peter Lambert and Stephen Wood. A very tight fought match till the second to last end where Peter and Stephen managed to pull 4 ahead. Phil and Wayne were unble to get the four they needed on the last end and Peter and Stephen won the final. Congratulations Peter and Stephen.
