A start of another bowling season and while some have taken a long break away from the greens others have been making a name for themselves in various competitions, only last week four of our new members Sue Kemp, Brian Zellin, Geraldine & Gordon Fisher claimed a place in the San Luis 4-2-2 Final, unfortunately they lost to Keith Jones team but very well done, that also goes to Mo & Martin Foulcer, Maggie Furness & Ian Kenyon who lost to Keith’s team in the Semi final.
I’d like to welcome all our new members who have just joined the club and wish them a happy & successful year.
The first of the Winter League campaign kicked off on Wednesday at Quesada and the less said about it the better as they suffered a 12-0 defeat. The Berleen team also came second…better things to come!
