The Brandon Bowls Club had another fantastic week of bowls, with great turnouts and competitive matches across Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday.
On Wednesday afternoon, the triples match saw Henry Hazel, Vanda Ballao, and Margaret Chapman come out on top, defeating Ann Newton, Bev Garioch, and Helen Collins. In the pairs game, Joy Woods and Darelle Pearce teamed up with Lyn Storrie to beat Sandra Darwen and Lyn Farr.
Friday night’s bowls were full of fun and camaraderie with nine bowlers taking part. The triples game saw a victory for Ben Mills, Rob Jorgensen, and Lyn Storrie, who triumphed over Ben Mills, David Bycroft, and Joe Ypinazar. In the doubles, Margaret and Ross McLaughlan outplayed Norm Storrie and Bruce McCallum for the win.
Sunday’s turnout was smaller, as some members were away attending out-of-town events, but the competition was still fierce. Mick McCloskey, Helen Collins, and Kev Collins defeated Kenny Ferguson, Joe Ypinazar, and Alan Garioch. Meanwhile, Gary Nosworthy, Glenn Woodford, and Doug Robins secured a win over Ben Mills, Vince Beitia, and Richard Mau. The highlight of the day was the Jackpot being claimed by Kenny Ferguson, Joe Ypinazar, and Alan Garioch.
A reminder to all members that the highly anticipated Trophy Bowls Night, sponsored by Bennett Exhaust, is coming up on 15 November. As the final event of the year, it promises to be a popular evening, so make sure to get your names in soon!
