As autumn draws to a close and winter looms, Airlie Beach Bowls Club finds itself amidst the pennants competition, encountering varied outcomes across its teams. Hopes are high for improvement in the matches ahead.
In Men's Pennants Division One, victories were hard-fought, with one narrow win against South Suburban and a loss to Proserpine. Warren Mills's team, featuring Peter Barrett, Andrew Butler, and Bob McMahon, displayed exceptional form, contributing significantly. Division Three saw similar results, with Tony Whitehorn showcasing impressive skill. Division 5 secured only one victory but discovered promising newcomer Wayne Tippett, supported by John Brown's stellar performance. However, losses to RSL Mackay and Proserpine tempered their progress, although newcomer Luke Fenney showed potential.
The Ladies' Pennants Teams mirrored these performances, with stalwarts like Ladda Purdie, Joan McGrath, Betty Nicole, Carol Crosbie, and Margo Stanley upholding high standards against tough opposition.
In Tuesday's Social Bowls, new players Kathy Remmerswaal, Dolph Lossberg, and Mark Mawson clinched the winning prize, while Lyn Hodder and Dawn Watson showed significant improvement.
Wednesday's event saw Mervyn Stewart's team securing victory among over 21 participants, despite the jackpot remaining unclaimed.
Wednesday night's Business House Bowls showcased new teams, with Rock Plumb leading, followed closely by The Burrows Girls, PRD, Battery Warehouse, and Hadlow Racing.
Friday mornings witnessed the Endeavour Foundation and Christian College competing to represent their school in the state competition, with fine players progressing well.
