 Ontario Triples On September 3-4th Al Purcell, Bill Arthur and Berkeley Emmons (Pickering) were the District 14 representatives in the Ontario triples championships. After a flawless first day they topped their round robin group and qualified for the quarter finals on day 2. Despite being behind in both quarter and semi finals they staged comebacks to qualify for the final. Their luck deserted them in that game and they had to be satisfied with the silver medal. |
Monday Night League - A report from Carol Dewey
The Monday Night League wrapped up the 2022 season on September 19th with a game of 4,3,2,1 followed by refreshments and awards. Members present were randomly divided into teams of three or four for the first four ends then regrouped for the second and third rounds based on their finishing position in the preceding round. There was some serious competition and lots of social interacion. While the results of the activity were tabulated, members enjoyed some refreshments on the deck. Prizes were awarded based on points generated during the season and the final event. Sheri Perkins topped the league followed by John Hawryszko, Bob Bates, Dianne Hawryszko, Jan Skillen, John Saunders, Mike Hendren and Mary Salter. There were eight draw prizes also given out. In addition to the prizes and draws, the MNL donated one hundred dollars to the club. Thanks everyone for a fun time. Looking forward to 2023!
Bowlers in Bloom
This was our last club tournament of the season and there was a great turn-out for it. We played three different games. The first was normal jitney rules but each team had two power play ends where they could double the score. In game 2 the jack could be placed anywhere over the hog line as long as it was in the rink boundary and there was a time limit of 75 minutes on the game. In the third game there were extra points for touchers and the lead with the closest bowl to the jack. Some teams soon worked out that it didn’t matter whther or not you won the end as you could score more points with touchers and lead bowls. Congratulations to the winning team of Tom Bevan, Louisa Arthur and Christine Thickson. Donna Longman substituted for Christine in game 2.
