Head West

After travelling West chasing some better conditions for lawn bowls, the Southern Cross team of Barry Ziebell, Dave Scotney, Clark Davidson and Kim Hankinson won the first Round of the Inglewood Open Fours Carnival on Sunday. (Photo supplied by Inglewood Bowls Club).

It has been unusually quiet at the Southern Cross Bowls Club recently with the weather stymying any chance to get on the green. There was good news for some members of the club who headed west to Inglewood last week in search of better weather. They discovered it wasn’t raining in Inglewood and played the Inglewood Four’s Carnival.

Barry Ziebell, Dave Scotney, Clark Davidson and Kim Hankinson were first round winners. Not only did they get to play bowls, but they came home with a prize as well. According to reports Inglewood hosted a most successful event.

Thursday, the “Cross” team of Cameron Wilson, Geoff Davis and Kev Mooney headed to Tannymorel Bowls Club and were good enough to leave with the runner-up prize in Tuck’s Tanny Triples competition.

The Southern Cross ladies have a team playing in the Gala Fours event at Tannymorel today so good luck to those players.

On Saturday (28/5), with a little luck and some more favourable conditions the club will be hosting Social Mixed Bowls at 1pm. Beginners and all bowlers are welcome. Free coaching will also be available. Be there by 12.30pm. Please contact Clark (Ph: 0427 673 277).

A reminder that rain or shine the ladies will be holding their committee meeting on Thursday 2/6 at 10.30am at the club.

For barefoot bowls, social and competition bowls, functions and bar, it is hard to go past the Southern Cross Bowls Club Inc. located opposite St Mary’s Church in Warwick.

Follow the club on Facebook or contact the Secretary, Cheryl on 0407 641 158 for any information.
