Crown Green Bowls
On Thursday 12th September
2024 Fi Drinkall organised a Crown Green afternoon of bowls.
This is her report:-
6 teams of triples were
divided into 2 pools and experienced this Crown Green event.
Some might suggest it was 'organised chaos' but with very
few bowls colliding, all navigated the 'anywhere goes' game
very well.
Group A winners emerged as
Mick Cooper, Roger
Jackson with Lynn Phillips and Mary Green making
up the triple for a match each. In group B the triumphant
team were Stefan Tomm, Sandy Cooper and Sue Carter.
Play offs for all bowlers
followed the group games but sadly the heavens opened, and
the placings matches could not be fully finished. That said,
with more points gained in the rounds, and leading in the
final, Mick, Roger, Lynn and Mary were declared the
winners.
Many thanks to Wayne and
Buckland Park for donating the prizes for the winners and
runners up.
Cheers to all for
supporting,
A huge thanks goes to Fi for
organising a very successful afternoon.
