Another night scuppered

By Casey O'Connor

Since night bowls commenced across the Southern Downs, evening storms and wet weather have played havoc with the popular timeslot.

Last Thursday, night bowls at the Warwick East club were not washed out but were severely curtailed due to rain and -as a result no prizes were awarded.

Organisers at the club are hoping for better luck tonight however the weather forecast again does not look promising. Play is scheduled to commence at 6.30 p.m., nominations must be submitted to the club by 6pm. Please call the club on 4661 9050.

On Saturday, the club hosted social bowls and six games of scroungers were played. The overall winner was Ed Diery. John Harslett and Graeme Wallace were equal runners-up and Peter Ridgewell took home 25% of the jackpot.

Today (Thursday 22 November) is the club’s monthly pairs competition with play scheduled to commence at 10am.

Saturday the next round of the club-selected fours competition will be decided. Play begins at 1 pm. For those not involved in the fours, there will be the normal mixed social bowls.

A reminder that the program next Thursday (2 Dec) is the club monthly mixed triples competition. Play commences at 10 am.
