It was a night when bowlers gather to celebrate the achievements of the year and to award Club trophies to all the bowlers winning Club Championship events.

It was pleasing to see about 80 players and partners attending and all enjoyed the camaraderie, a few drinks and a great meal presented by the new Club Myall Restaurant.

6 December: Due to the restraints of having only one green in play, the matches today were predominantly Fours games.

The grass green is making a fast comeback and is already greening-up for play sometime in the New Year.

There were 55 bowlers today which included 1 visitor from Wagga Wagga.

It was a Triples team of; Mark Nightingale, Greg Smith and Barry Goode that took out the money with 56 points.

Unlike last week, 4 teams went through undefeated with 1 on 52 points and the other 2 teams on 54.

Next Wednesday looks again a full house with 50 plus players but we always have room to accommodate our players.

8 December: Five–dollar Friday Open Pairs proved popular today with 18 players taking part.

The winners of the bragging rights were; Frank Zumbo and Henk Faber.

They were closely followed by Stewart Sturrock and Ken Devlin.

10 December: Today the Sunday Mixed Bowlers celebrated the end of their 2017 season with a Christmas Party.

Twenty five bowlers attended with some special guests joining the party for lunch.

It was great to have Sunday Mixed Bowls stalwarts, Beverley Thrift and Barry Goode, accompanied by his wife Joyce, attending.

Thanks for all your support Beverly and Barry. Much appreciated!

Adding to the enjoyment of the day, random cards were drawn and quite a few won a prize.

The organiser of Sunday Mixed Bowls, Robyn Webster, would just like to thank all the bowlers who have turned up each Sunday to keep Sunday bowls going.

She would also like to thank John Atherton who has being an immense help to her in the kitchen as well as her husband Ron for his assistance.

Take a bow yourself Robyn. Great effort!

13 December: Very warm conditions today with 48 bowlers playing one game of Fours over 22 ends.

The winners were; Peter Cheney, Tom Short, Graham Kelly and Dennis Ashbridge.

They had 35 points.

In other news: Nominations are still open for the Club Fours and Minor Singles. Many more entries can be accommodated.

The NDBA Saturday Pennants will be upon us shortly and names will be finalised within the next couple of weeks. We need your body!

Regular bowls will resume on Wednesday 10 January.

I wish the compliments of the season to all my readers and many, many thanks to the management and staff of the NOTA. Great team!
