James Gordon Insurance Men’s Pairs – June 21
On Saturday June 21 we held our yearly Men’s Pairs Open Tournament.
16 teams from Oshawa, Whitby, Campbellford, Pickering, Peterborough, Sun City
Florida and Cobourg gathered on what turned out to be a beautiful day for bowling.
The day started off with many high scores. Ben van Steijn 27pts, Mike Cyr
(Oshawa) 21 pts, Terry Bradshaw 20 Pts and Peter Robb (Whitby) with 17 pts.
The one pitfall that comes with getting a large score is that you have to play another
high scoring team in the next game. That didn’t seem to bother the van Steijn, Dan
Milligan team who continued to rack up the points winning their next 2 games 18-
7 and 20-6. These large scores led them easily to the trophy.
The other 3 game winner on the day was the Jacob Hyatt / Isaac Kerr team. After
winning their first 2 games they found themselves tied 11-11 coming home in
game 3. It took a close measure to finally give them their 12-11 victory over Rick
Barnard from Campbellford.
The final results:
1 st Place: Ben van Steijn and Dan Milligan – 3 wins 54+11 pts (only 18 against)
2 nd Place: Jacob Hyatt and Isaac Kerr (skip) – 3 wins 43+1 pts
3 rd Place: Mike Cyr and Don Northeim - 2 wins 43 pts
4 th Place: Ron Adams and Ken Bunner (Oshawa) – 2 wins 42 pts
Highest scoring 1-game winner: Bill Arthur and Henry Kowalski – 1 win 34 pts
High last Game: Martin Foxhall and Ken Martucci (Sun City Florida) - 16 pts
Other interesting Notes:
Ben and Dan have now won 12 games in a row at our Men’s Pairs event.
Jacob and Isaac will now have to contend with each other in the Ontario Under 18
Singles championships being held at our club June 28-29
Another enjoyable day at the club. Thanks go out to our volunteers. This includes
Donna Ball and Mary Thibault (in the kitchen from 7:15-4pm), Draw Master Louisa
Arthur and as always, the Greens crew and Ralph Hewitt at the 50/50 table as well
as others who helped with set up, parking passes and whatever was needed during
the day.
