Women\u2019s bowls<\/b><\/p>\n
After such a busy August we needed some quiet time. Therefore, I only have the first match of the Club Fours to report on. As I mentioned in the last edition of the Voice, the Club Fours is being played as a round robin as there were only three teams entered. They were, from Lead to Skip: Bernice Dobson, Sue Sheil, Irene Dunn, Jane Haddon; then Enid Hall, Christine Yeo, Maya McGrath, Deb Folkard: and Marjorie Wilkie, Ruth Willdig, Judy Whitton and Anna Stewart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The first match held on Tuesday 12 September resulted in a victory to Jane Haddon\u2019s team against my team, by 26 to 14. My team had a few opportunities in the latter stages to bring about a miracle turn around but it wasn\u2019t to be. Our only hope is that, because it is a round robin, we were not knocked out of the competition, yet. We live to fight another day! Congratulations to Jane\u2019s team who played extremely well and will now contest for the major prize on Tuesday 19 September against Anna Stewart\u2019s team. Good luck everyone!<\/span><\/p>\n Our Grange Triples Shield tournament, kindly sponsored by the \u2018Grange at Berry\u2019 retirement village, will be held on Friday 13 October. Teams from Bomaderry, Culburra, Dapto Citizens, Figtree Sports, Huskisson, Lake Conjola, Milton-Ulladulla, Nowra, St George\u2019s Basin, Sussex Inlet RSL and Warilla will compete, vying for the fabulous prize money on offer. Place getters could take home $525 for first, $375 for second, $22 for third, $150 for fourth and $90 per team for the AM and PM winners. I will look forward to reporting on this major event in our bowls calendar next month. Until then happy bowling!<\/span><\/p>\n Deb Folkard<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Men\u2019s bowls<\/b><\/p>\n Pennants<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n The Pennant Game against Greenwell Point on 20 August did not go to plan, with Berry losing both games. Berry scored a total of 33 points to Greenwell Point\u2019s 57 points, resulting in the five available competition points being awarded to Greenwell Point.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The final Pennant Game against Sussex Inlet RSL was held at Berry on 26 August. Berry won both games convincingly and earned all five available competition points; however this was too little too late and Berry finished fourth in the six-team competition.<\/span><\/p>\n Zone Championships<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n The Area A Men\u2019s State Triples and Open Reserve Triples were contested at Berry on 16 and 17 September. Mark Power, \u2018Tige\u2019 Lidbetter and Nathan Bezant competed in the Men\u2019s State Triples but were bundled out in the first round, going down to a team from Culburra by 30 points to 17.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In the Open Reserve Triples Bob Dunn, Grahame Hooke and Rob Folkard won their first game against a team from Worrigee by 27 points to 21 to progress to the second round. A similar result in the second game against Shoalhaven Heads earned them a place in the final by winning by 26 points to 22.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Final, played on 17 September, was a very tight match against another team from Worrigee. Bob and Grahame both played very well throughout to keep us in the match and, despite an exceptional final end, we eventually lost the match by 24 points to 23.<\/span><\/p>\n Social bowls<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n 17 August \u2013 Darryl Goodger and Steve Kellett defeated Ron Nelson and Bill Chittick by 28 points to 18.
