BOWLS

Our club champs are about to get underway this weekend . In addition to these our club has begun playing in the Old Parks mid-week tournament where we lost our first game by 15 points to 9 . Its an interesting format in that each team gets one point for every end won plus three points overall fior winning the game .

Old Parks also run a trips tournament which begins soon and is played on Saturday mornings . We’ll have two sides participating .

We’ve also been invited to play in a tournament at Rivonia next Friday . It’s quite an interesting day as it’s aimed at commemorating the 100 th birthday of one of their members . Not only is it his birthday but he still plays the occasional game . Their plan is to make this an annual competition and we’ll more than likely be asked to continue our involvement .

Things are humming along at the club and the advent of the new members and their involvement is very encouraging

CRICKET
