The past two weeks’ heavy rainfall has unfortunately forced the cancellation of several bowls' games at Ayr Bowling Club.
The wet weather has kept players off the green, but the club’s spirit remains strong, and there’s still plenty of exciting news on the horizon. The club hopes all their members are safe and dry.
Ayr Bowling Club did manage to get some bowls in on Wednesday. During the day, social bowls was held. Arthur, Pam and Lew defeated Barry, John and Gary in the triples game. In the pairs game, Maurie and Anthony tied with Ron and Ron.
In the evening, Wednesday social bowls kicked off with a few people braving the weather. The club had one great game of triples - Evelyn Wiltshere, Ross McLaughlin and Heather Jorgensen defeated Margaret McLaughlin Joe Grabbi and Sam Caltabiano.
Looking ahead, (pending better weather), the Ladies will also be returning to the green for their bowling games. It’s an exciting time for the club as both the men’s and women’s prepare for some great competition.
This week the club received the exciting news that Pam Power has been selected in the North Queensland Representative side. This is a fantastic achievement and the club is very proud. The club looks forward to watching her in this competition.
