Our events programme for the close season has now been confirmed and all the important dates are on this website!  If you click on the “Calendar” option on the right hand menu, you’ll be able to access all the information  and mark the dates in your diary!

This is a list of the competition winners and runners up that I am aware of at present.  Over the next couple of weeks, the list will be updated to cover all the competitions so keeps your eyes on this site.

The finals that will be played on Saturday 5th September at 2pm are:

Championship:  Jimmy Close v David Anderson Snr

Presidents:  Peter Gardner v Benny Hands

Handicap:  David Kelvin v Alan Anderson

Winners:  Mark Renwick v David Anderson Jnr

Senior Singles:  Ian Allan v Willie Findlay (1)

Junior Singles:  Ryan Cherrie v Ross Anderson

Congratulations to all the players on reaching the finals.

A special mention must go to the Anderson family who have 4 family members competing on finals day;  three generations of the one family, grandfather David Snr, sons David Jnr and Alan, and grandson Ross!  Surely this is a first in our club?!

I have no doubt finals day will be a cracker this year and may the best bowlers win!

A new 1 day internal competition involving teams of 5 players was held at our club on Saturday 29th August 2009.  7 teams took part and the eventual winners were Scott Johnston, Tommy Johnston, James McPake, Kevin Moore and Liam Rowatt.  Congratulations to the winners and thanks to the organisers, Jim and Ian.
