Stanthorpe bowlers were left in a quandary last week – to play or not to play due to the most unusual weather conditions. The heat on Wednesday kept many indoors and there were just enough players for one game of three bowl triples. The game turned out to be as hot as the conditions. Bruno Stefanon, Rocky Thompson and Peter Smith held a very comfortable lead tenth end looked headed for a win. Greg Hammond Ernie Jones and Mark Wicks hit back staging a late surge. The trio running away with the game 16-12.
The Stanthorpe Bowls club green is looking good following the recent working bee and the surrounds are look good and the fresh line markings look a treat.
The weekend weather conditions also proved challenging, blowing a gale and scattered showers.
A bunch of stalwarts managed one game of three bowl triples which turned into another nail biter. Robyn Smith, Mark Wicks and Peter Smith just able to hold out Greg Hammond, Ernie Jones and Brian Brown 18-17.
The club’s featured sponsor this weeks is the team from Favero Motors (David, Warren and Stephan). The club acknowledges and thanks them for their support.
