Weekly Bowls report - 12/11/23

MIDWEEK PENNANT

With the Melbourne cup day on Tuesday we were left to sort out another day to play our match against Rochester.  After many different suggestions of a day and times by our club manager,  both clubs couldn’t come up with a suitable day. The end result was that Valley View unfortunately had to forfeit. Maybe next year this day should be a general bye.

By the time this goes to print we will of played our match against Rich River up at Rich River.

Our next match is Stanhope at Valley View. Good luck and  Good bowling.

SATURDAY PENNANT

The decision to start at 9.00 to beat the heat was welcomed by those who played on Saturday at Stanhope.

Rod Donohue’s team of Rob Varcoe, Frank Findlay and Alf Soden  played the rink led by D Millard. The Stanhope combination out bowled the Valley View team winning by 16 shots. 27 to 11.

Pete Lyon led his team of Leanne Busch, Helen Ward and Ken Hastie to the closest game of our 3 rinks against G. Smith and his team, losing the match by 9 shots 27 to 18.

Graeme Topp skipped for Dave Clavell, Tim Robertson-Skevington and Geoff Beamish against B Pearson’s team. The Stanhope team again were too consistent picking up the game by 14 shots. 27 to 13.

All Stanhope rinks coincidently scored exactly 27 shots each to claim the win over Valley View 81 to 42.
