Prestige 4's - November 2024

Prestige 4's - November 2024

Saturday the 2nd of November saw the commencement of our 2 day Men’s Prestige Fours Tournament with 64 bowlers playing 5 rounds of 2 bowl fours.

The weather was beautiful with a slight breeze and bright sunshine – great conditions for the playing of bowls.

Through the course of the 3 rounds played Saturday, very tight games were the order of the day with only 5 games out of 24 having a margin above 10 shots. Two drawn games also featured during the day showing that a very competitive tournament was taking place. Over the course of the day the leader-board was chopping and changing however one team was making its presence felt.

We returned Sunday morning to recommence the game after a fantastic breakfast BBQ fundraiser for Bungwahl Public school, however the weather started to deteriorate with the wind picking up very strongly. Once again great bowling and great camaraderie were the order of the day.

At the end of the tournament there can only be one winning team – congratulations to Jason Price, Peter Schroeder, Dave Penman and John Morton from Forster Bowling club on your great win finishing with 4 wins and a plus 27 margin.

A big thank-you to all the bowlers from our Manning-Great Lakes bowls region and other bowlers who came from far and wide, helping to make a very successful weekend of bowls.

Our club held the much-anticipated final of the club pairs on Sunday 24th of March 2024. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon with a light cooling breeze, fantastic for a good game of lawn bowls. The pairings of Corey Fitzgerald & Mick Ansell were taking on the well-versed pairing Laurie Keene & John Higman. Both teams were up for the challenge and on paper it was looking like it would be a very tight, close game and it did not disappoint. The game was played hard with some incredibly accurate bowling on display from both teams. Corey and Mick came out an attacked the 1st end and by the 8th end were up 10 shots to 2. However, the older heads of Laurie and John were able to rein in that lead and by the 11th end were only one shot behind. The next 10 ends produced some precise bowling especially from Corey and Mick as they were able to hold onto there slender lead. Unfortunately, whilst still plugging away, Laurie and John could not keep up with the young guns of Corey and Mick who eventually ran out winner 25 to 17. At the conclusion of the game, the large crowd that had amassed to watch the final gave the guys a standing ovation for such an enthralling game of bowls. A big congratulation to Corey Fitzgerald and Mick Ansell on being crowned the 2024 Pairs Champions at Pacific Palms Bowling Club. Commiseration to Laurie Keene and John Higman who pushed Corey and Mick all the way to the end.
