A belated congratulations and well done to Kay Carr who skipped the four for the Wellington City womens team in the recent Masters representative tournament in Masterton. Wellington won the six-team competition.
Alf De Munnik and Peter Toomey were involved a week earlier in Wanganui in the Wellington City mens team who finished third on countback in their Masters competition.
Congratulations to Jamie Coleman, Raymond Martin, Richard Corry and Rich’s uncle Phil Dickison on winning the Wilton Invitation Classic. The team won seven out of their eight matches to win the tournament by a point and earn a cool 1G each. Things were tense in the final game to secure the tournament win until they scored a maximum eight shots on the sixth end.

Hayley May, with a few helpers, has been taking the girls through the basics of bowls to prepare them for battle in the Wellington College Sport bowls competitions held on Thursdays at various clubs. The college has entered an incredible 11 teams in three different grades which also feature Tim Toomey’s St. Pat’s Wellington team in the Premier Division, and Nicole Toomey’s St. Mary’s team in Girl’s Division 1.
To keep track of their progress you can check out College Sport in the Links section, or the College Bowls season table on the Competitions page.
