The weekend kicked off with a thrilling Friday night social bowls clash on September 6th. Newcomer Ben Mills and club President Jamie Wood faced off against veterans Ray Paneccasio and Gary Pearce. It was a tightly contested game, with Mills dominating early on, but Paneccasio’s powerful performance turned the tide, leading his team to victory. Despite their loss, Mills and Wood claimed the evening's jackpot.
On Sunday, September 8th, 30 bowlers gathered for a mix of pairs, triples, and Championship 4s. The windy conditions made for a challenging day of bowls. In the Championship 4s, Damian Morello, Ross McLaughlin, Danny O’Shea, and Tony Bayliss defeated Gary Nosworthy, Trevor Elton, Hugh Montgomery, and Allan Garioch. In another match, Mick McCloskey, Joe Yipnazar, Peter Henderson, and Richie Mau overcame Neville Dickinson, Doug Kiehne, Ray Paneccasio, and Peter Jorgenson.
In social bowls, the triples team of Jim Murray, Vince Beitia, and Jamie Woods secured a win over Terry Feakes, Henry Hazel, and Jeff Taylor. Meanwhile, in the pairs, Helen Collins and Lloyd Shepherd defeated Ben Mills and Kevin Collins, while Ken Ferguson and Doug Robbins bested Glenn Woodford and Leo Kenny.
Looking ahead, the club is gearing up for the Country Pennants at Wangaratta Bowls Club on Saturday, September 14th. Teams from Brandon, Ayr, Bowen, and Wangaratta will face off in a round-robin event, with Bowen currently holding bragging rights. Best of luck to all players in this final event of the year!
