News for week ending 19th February 2012

Team Humphries hold the 2012 Club Fours crown

Team Humphries triumphed over Team Lattanzio in a battle of the heavyweights played on the greens last Wednesday. Involved in the game were: for Team Humphries were Laurie Perkins – Steve Hollington – John O'Dell & their skip John Humphries. Opposing them were: Ken Bowers – Gary Thurston – Alex Leach & Skip Alex Lattanzio. Team Lattanzio raised the flag of surrender on the 20th end when the scoreboard registered 26 shots to 14 in favour of Team Humphries. 12 ends to 8 in this match really tells the story of the game which to my mind did not reach the heights as was anticipated. Nevertheless, all competitors gave of their best in the game and seemed proud to have reach the final. Congratulations to Team Humphries who now are crowned Club Fours Champions for 2012.

All up there were 45 bowlers on the green, of which 37 participated in the Jackpot Social afternoon. Following all games, Bowls Organiser Garnet declared Trophy winners to be drawn from Winning Cards Out of the Hat. Lucky winners were:
1st Stan Warburton – Ian Abberley & Garnet Eastment
2nd Barry Ryan – Harold Griffiths& Graham Hulbert
3rd John Black – Ken Taket & Mick Quinn
Lucky Losers Out of the Hat: Jim Green – Tom Smith & Warren Parr
Graham Hulbert failed in his attempt at the $370 jackpot putting a further $20 into the next “start-up” Jackpot making it $160
