There was an excellent for the Warwick Bowls Club Open Spring Fours Carnival last Sunday.
Fourteen teams competed for prizemoney sponsored by The Churches of Christ and the club is grateful to them for their generous sponsorship.
Manager of the Warwick facility, Chris Newley, joined the bowlers and was on hand to present the prizes to the winners.
Conditions of play for the Carnival which was played over three rounds of 16 ends were eight points for a win plus one point for each winning end.
At the end of the three rounds, it was the Warwick Bowls club team of Kev. Mooney, Max Balfour, Ken Hayes and Russell Bean who were named winners of the event.
The runners up were Clifton visitors, John Cockrane, Desley Kehl, Gordon Jago and Robert Kehl.
Winners of the individual rounds were :- Round 1 The Warwick East team skipped by Danny Hughes.
The Texas team skipped by Sandra Pianta were the winners of round two while the final round went to the team of Tannymorel visitors skipped by Geoff Creighton.
Unfortunately more detailed results are unavailable as several cards were not completed with player names and card number nine has done a vanishing trick apparently.
It would be most helpful to the Club Scribe and others if local and visiting Skips completed their cards correctly.
Aside from these minor administrative hiccups it was a very successful Carnival.
On Wednesday (15/9) the Jacks and Kitties crew continued their Southern Downs visit Joining a large group at the Warwick Bowls Club.
All up 42 visiting and local bowlers were on the green enjoying the great conditions followed by an afternoon laden with home cooked delights.
The visitors then scooped the pool winning the majority of the raffles.
In the bowls department the winners were the team of Sue, Graham and Brian Black.
A special thank you from the club members for the sponsorship of KFC and to all those who contributed to a successful afternoon.
