After a couple of weeks of suspense, the missing scorecard has been found and returned, allowing us to report that Philip Brown, John Anderson, Mary Hedgelong, and Sandy Daffara triumphed over Philip Brown, Alen Sanderson, Barry Zillmann, and Mike Harrison with a final score of 23-17.
Wednesday's Social Bowls welcomed two special guests to the fold: Wayne Coonan from Ayr Bowls Club and Henny Tattum from Airlie Beach. The matches were lively and competitive, with Bruce Uhe, Barry Zillman, and Sandy Daffara defeating Alen Sanderson, Henny Tattum, and Mike Harrison 19-11. In another match, Philip Brown and Heather Brown claimed a decisive victory against Arthur Griffith and Wayne Coonan, 25-10.
Friday evening brought a fun and relaxed atmosphere to the greens with Barefoot Bowls. The event saw great participation from both players and volunteers, contributing to the success of this monthly event. In fact, the club continued the weekend of barefoot bowls with groups booked in for Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, with everyone enjoying the experience.
Sunday afternoon was perfect for another round of social bowls, despite the warm weather. A special highlight was Orin, a world traveller currently visiting the area, who had her first experience of lawn bowls. Orin and the club members thoroughly enjoyed the social time together.
In the day’s social bowls results:
• John Anderson and Gavin Noonan defeated Ken Watts and Kendall Watts 17-10.
• Mary Hedgelong, Bruce Uhe, and Mike Harrison narrowly edged out Orin, Philip Brown, and Wayne Coonan 17-14.
• Arthur Griffith and Peter Lawton claimed a tight victory over Henny Tattum and Sandy Daffara, 17-16.
