LADIES SINGLES

Two ladies singles matches were organised last Saturday with T Messervy defeating S Goode in the quarter finals 25-14 and G Evans defeating M Cleghorn in the semi finals 25-13. 

The next semi-final match is between T Messervy and M Mohamed.  This match is called to play for Saturday 12 May 2012 at 12.30pm.

 LADIES PAIRS

 The draw for the ladies pairs club championship was made last Monday.  There seemed to be a problem uploading the draw.  Therefore the draw will be put up on the club notice board. 

 The match scheduled to play this Saturday 12 May 2012 at 12.30pm is between M Miller/P Bishop and S Goode/L Chamberlain

MENS A SINGLES
R Rimes 25 d P Jordan 16
C Hassen 25 d K Gannon 24

   Two big matches: Peter held on gamely up to 14-all before dropping a 4 to let Rob take control and run out a clear winner. The Hassen-Gannon match saw Chris streak away to a 19-9 lead before Ken decided to move up a gear and levelled out at 24-24!  Chris got up in the last in yet another 1 shot win.

BOWLS COACHING SATURDAY

Our coaching sessions for new bowlers started last Saturday with four keen and promising candidates. Still time to invite people along to have a go.

 

**If you are hoarding your Bowler magazines from 2010-11 and would like to give them away, we would like them for Brett Wilkie’s coaching pages. Talk to Col or Peter.

 

Good bowling everyone … see you on the green.

   Captains Col and Mimi
