Well done Rich and Brad!

Congratulations to Richard Corry for winning the Professional Bowls Association Ranking Singles event at the Heretaunga Club in Hastings on Saturday. Richard narrowly beat Bradley Down in a great final 10-8, 7-7. Rich then went on to reach the quarterfinals of the International Singles qualifier on Sunday before losing to Scott Mackenzie (Wairarapa) 7-8, 9-12.

The good weekend pushes Rich back into the NZ PBA top ten in the rankings in 8th spot. Brad still has a mathematical chance of grabbing a share of the PBA Rookie of the Year trophy when he journeys down to Dunedin next month for the World Indoor Singles playoffs.

Well done Peter, MaryAnn and Rich!

Well done to Peter Rintoul, MaryAnn Wilson and Richard Corry who narrowly missed retaining their Wellington Catholic Open Triples indoor bowls title last week at Berhampore. They went down by one shot to Maree and Kevin Crighton and Marcus Trlin (Vogelmorn) in a see-saw final.

Working Bee this Saturday!

Lou and Peter will be at the club working on the greens and surrounds THIS Saturday from 10am. They would appreciate as much help from club members as possible AND especially premier inter-club players and those men who are expecting to play in the invitation pairs.
Remember it’s your club!!!

Thankssssss
