Hi Everyone
Well it’s not long now before the new bowling season gets under way on Saturday 19 September at 1.00pm. Have your names in by 12.30pm and then a decision will be made based on the entry numbers whether to play pairs or triples. As it’s opening day, whites are a must.
Pre Season Pairs: This Saturday 12th Sept another pre-season pairs tournament of any gender is planned to begin at 10.00am. Enter your pairs team on the list up in the men’s locker room by Friday. Cost is $10 per team and dress code is mufti. At time of writing there was only room for four more teams.
Last Saturday we saw a wonderful day for the first of the two pre-season tournaments. The final result was only decided in the last couple of ends of the fourth round. Doug and Bill ended up the eventual winners with Des and Jacinta, and Scruff and Lynlea very close behind.
Friday Nights: We’ve had some fun evenings recently with Noeleen and Lindsay, and Marty and Kay winning prizes on the Trivia Music evening; Noeleen and Lindsay, Pat and Nancy and Marty and Kay collecting prizes for “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” and the Top Punter competition was won by Joan Smith, heading off nearly thirty other participants. Well done Joan.
Last Friday we had a Housie evening and this will be repeated on Friday week – 18 September. This Friday for members there will be a focus on handmade jewellery and Le Reve perfume – all for sale.
Heard on the Green Last Saturday:
Scruff: “How much am I short?”
Skip: “You ought to bloody well know, you’re closer to it”.
Mates in Bowls:
Our Club begins the Mates in Bowls 6-week tournament on Wednesday 4th November. These evenings are to encourage teams of non-bowlers to share and enjoy the game of lawn bowls.
We will need the help of members on these evenings to support these teams in mastering the basics, to help with the barbeque and help with running this tournament. See Paul Darbyshire for further details.
