The 2nd Ladies versus Gentlemen Competition is on Sunday afternoon, 25th June, and we were hoping for it to be a pairs competition. As it stands currently, John Probyn & Alan Thomas will be playing Gaye Hicdonmez & Maureen Thomas, as they are the only FOUR who have signed up!!! Come on folks, make the most of the glorious weather and the well tended green. Ian
FRIDAY 30th June is the date for CUP games in the Clwydian Senior Citizens League. Our A team are playing Dyserth at Abergele, the B team play Grove Park B at Rhyl Seabank Road. The C team unfortunately went out at the preliminary round stage. BUT we are hosting 2 Rhos-on-Sea teams in an afternoon match at Vardre, and require 4-6 volunteers to do refreshments/measuring etc. Notice on the board under “WHAT’S NEW”. Ian
Elaine gets Nigel and Ian ready to start. Then, whilst Nigel is distracted, Ian takes full advantage and sets off, taking a quick, and ultimately unassailable, lead.
Long after the crowds have gone, Gay is still practicing to be selected to become a future commission on the Fourth Art Plinth in Trafalgar Square. Click Here for information about the Fourth Plinth.
David L & Diane represented Vardre Bowling Club yesterday in the Pairs Competition (Colwyn & Llandudno Bowling League) and won through to the semi-finals where they were eventually knocked out by a duo from Abergele Bowling Club. Despite their names being called out incorrectly a couple of times over the tannoy system (being called Harry and Meghan was just too far off base) it was a very enjoyable day until the storm hit and the rain set in, just in time for the semi-finals.
