Bowls Bliss

Today’s Fun Friendly was another great day on the green. This is what bowls events are all about. Cheers Rosina and many thanks to Bob for all the refreshments.

Although Rosina looks like the winner on the day, the bowls comp winners were Shan and A.N.Other who, like a National Lottery winner, seeks “no publicity” nor international fame.

Just a few more photos of the day’s event despite camera battery malfunction.

Final Fun Friendly event of the season will take place next Thursday 14th October 2021. See you there.

BTW the lines were so much straighter on the blackboard today. That Flexicurve does the trick.

“I had a chat with Mark the above Openreach Contractor ,who was in the process of adding additional fibre link directly to each home from each distribution pole , in the Aberconwy Exchange area , hence more data and speed , the old copper’s disappearing fast “

A friendly competition for all club members has been organised for this coming Thursday 7th October 2021. We will be playing in teams of 4 again so please turn up by 1:30pm. To help offset the cost of the refreshments provided by Bob, there will be a football card thingy so bringing £1 with you might be nice. Thanks. Dave H.

The Boys Have It

After an exciting and very close point scoring competition, just 133 to 122 points, the boys won the Competition on the last day of September by just 4:3 in games (score updated 6/10/21. The previous score included 2-points for the Aggregate but this does not apply in Fun Days and Friendlies). The rain showers did not dampen resolve or competitive spirits, and the Girls vociferously encouraged their team mates throughout the event. Quite a few of the girls, who were new bowlers this year, had never played in the rain before.

The trophy, that was first presented in 2005, was given to Rog S, the Captain of the Boys Team. The competition was last played in 2016 but, with the huge success of the 2021 event, it looks like it will become a regular annual fixture. Well played everyone.

Rog S, Captain of the Winning Boys Team – Many Congratulations to you All.
