The Travelling QLD Teachers Bowls visit to the Summit Bowls Club last weekend was very successful. I am reliably informed that all Summit bowlers were on their very best behaviour and there was no schoolyard shenanigans and surprisingly I have not heard of a single detention.
On Saturday afternoon games of Triples were played and for the third time in as many weekends rain intervened, and the games were unfortunately cut short. Prior to the rain there were some great bowls played.
Due to the rain intervention on Saturday, the overall winners were decided by a lucky dip . Taking home, the spoils were Brian Brown, Ray Rasby and Brian Wilmot.
Thanks to cooks Tony and Pete, Sunday kicked off with a BBQ Breakfast for 28 bowers washed down by four games of Triples and one game of Three Bowl Pairs with the following results.
Eric Clarke and Michael Sweeney defeated John Graham and Val Hansen 28-16.
Averil Maree, Pam Moore and Tony Schubert had a 13-10 win over Barry Murphy, Ray Rasby and Tina Schubert.
Margaret Harvey, Dawn Rasby and Rob Capelli had a comfortable 19-11 win in their game against Andrew McGlashan, Marg Madden and Adrian Jackson. Bill, Irene Davis and Darren Stanley cruised to a 26-12 win over Rod Newlands, Pam Clarke and Terry Mason.
In a much closer game Marg Miles, Cliff Jones and Barry Davis had a is 15-14 win in their game against Trish Allen, Brian Brown and Jamie Zamprogno.
The Qld Teachers group had a very enjoyable few days. A big thank you to the Ladies who once again excelled in the catering department over the two days.
Darren did an excellent job looking after the bar ensuring everyone was well hydrated. Frank and the team ensured the greens were in top shape.
A reminder to all financial members of the Summit Bowls Club, the AGM will be held at the Clubhouse on Sunday 21 November at 10:00am. All positions will be declared vacant and nomination forms are on the notice board at the club.
