YMGCR Bowls
Wednesday Social 3 bowl pairs had 37 players and there were 4 two game winners.
With a big score the winners were “Stormin” Norm Winderbank and Billy Houghton with a massive score of +28.
Runners up with 2 wins and a +10 were Doc Martin and a guest G. Wood and with a big spread of points it was no surprise that the jackpot failed to go off.
Last week Claire Sanders and Anne Miles had won the first game in the Bowls Victorian State Championships when the paper went to print. They then went on to the final and in a close game went down.
The girls did the club proud by winning gold in the fours (with their mate Laureen Smith) and a silver in the pairs, just goes to show the girls are some the best in the state.
Quite a few members travelled to Moama for the May tournament and in the mixed two day event YMGCR produced the quinella, with Anne Miles carrying on her great form and Rory Brown doing his bit. They won their 6 games with a massive score of +79 shots up, runners up with 6 wins and +65 shots were the Sanders duo of Wally and the Colonel (Garry and Claire).
Don’t forget the AGM will be held on Monday, May 31 at 7pm at the club.
Yarrawonga Bowls Club
Condolences go out to Iris Hooper and family on the passing of Husband and Father Brian. Brian was a well-respected member of the club for many years. RIP Brian.
On a happier note:
The BV State Championships were held last week in Bendigo with 4 members playing in them.
Caroline Reily played in the Ladies Triples and Father and Sons team Tim, Tyson and Koby Cromie played in the Men’s Triples. Caroline and team were put out in the ¼ final by 1 shot on the last end!
Tim,Tyson and Koby got all the way through to the Semi Final before being put out. Well done to all for doing so well.
Congratulations to Tyson Cromie for being chosen by Bowls Victoria to play in the City versus Country game to be played in Bendigo on May 29 and 30.
The AGM was held last Sunday with good numbers attending.
Thanks goes to the outgoing President, Board and various committee members (as well as members that do a lot of other jobs most people don’t even think of) for all the hard work they put in throughout the year.
Thanks also to all those that have nominated for all the positions needed to keep our small bowling club going.
The club wish incoming President Robert Tait, Secretary Dennis Causby, Treasurer Evelyn Calder, Board members Ian woods, Raelene Faragher, Maurie Lee, Brian Batty and all the committee members and helpers a smooth and prosperous year ahead.
It has been great to see members jumping in with offers of help even in small ways, it is very much appreciated.
