After last weekend’s fantastic Men’s Fours carnival, this week the honours go to two of the most talented women in our little club, Vicki Spann and Joan McGrath, who each took out four titles.
Firstly, Vicki’s brilliance was on display with a magnificent Ladies A Grade Singles performance, winning 25–9 over her nemesis Joan. It was Joan who teamed with Carol Crosbie to easily win the Ladies A Grade Pairs.
The Ladies A Grade Fours went to Lyn Graham at lead, Vicki at second, Ladda Purdie at third and Joan skipping this talented team to victory.
The Mixed Fours went to Vicki at lead, Joan at second, Harrison Quod at third and Shane Spann at skipper.
The Ladies A Grade Triples went to Vicki at lead, Wendy Pomeroy at second and Joan skipping. We will now see how these two talented ladies go in the Champion of Champions events.
Tuesday’s ladies social bowls was run brilliantly by Dawn Dowell, with the winning team being skipper Tony Whitehorn, lead little Ronnie W and second Dawn.
There were also 26 bowlers vying for first prize, with skipper Rick Galea and pairs partner Graham Bradley taking home the winners’ prize.
Finally, Sunday afternoon’s social bowls, well organised by assistant club manager Ruby Butler, saw skipper Warren Mills, Sue Dakin at second and visiting lead John McAdam, from Victoria’s Mulgrave Country Club, claim a close victory.
