The Spectacular Water Systems tournament certainly lived up to the sponsor’s name. One of the players was heard saying “raindrops keep falling on my head” and that was certainly the case in the first game. After 6 ends the rain came pouring down and teams retreated to the safety of the club house. After the rain break play resumed and the leader in the club house was Bill Arthur’s team with a score of 12+5 points, followed by Bob Bates’s team with 11 points.
In the second round Bill’s team defeated Bob’s team. Mike Place’s team was the only other team with 2 wins so those two teams faced off in the final game. By this time, we had sunshine and the greens were drying out quickly which meant an adjustment to the conditions was essential. Mike’s team’s experience came to the fore and they ran out 9-5 winners to win the tournament. The full result was as follows:
Winners: Mike Place, Dianne Hawryszko and Bozana Brick; 3wins and 27 points
Second: Bill Arthur, Anne Leahy and Deborah Gourd; 2 wins and 29+5 points
Third: Carol Dewey, Vince Tamburello and John Hawryszko; 2 wins and 26+4 points
One game high” Mary Salter, Ken Bevan and Bill MacNab; 20+5 points
