Noosa Heads Bowls
NINETY-FOUR bowlers turned out at Noosa Heads last Monday, 1 December, for the final Noosa 1500 of the year. Winners of the major prize in this popular open pairs event were Ross Ward and Graeme Anderson. Next came John Walford and Keith Muir. Winners in the first-round losers section were Mal Lloyd and Mary Williams from Graham and Marion Foster. By popular demand, the 1500 returns next year and the entry sheet for Monday 2 February, 2015, is already filled.
End-of-the-year celebrations got under way in fine style on Saturday when a big roll-up attended the annual champions award presentation which was followed by a Christmas dinner party and dance. The ladies section have morning bowling followed by a break-up lunch this Wednesday. And next Tuesday the men will celebrate with the annual Ross Ward Ham Day, when everyone goes home with a prize.
In regular events: Tuesday men’s pairs winners were Steve Bowie and Garyth Williams from Ray McComb and Les James. Ladies triples on Wednesday went to Debbie Austin, Jeanette Emery and Gill Macdonald. Friday Open Jackpot Pairs drew a big crowd with Steve Chandler and Jenny Smith taking the first prize over Valmai Lynch and Yvonne Ambery. Brian and Jeanette Emery won the first-round losers pool with second going to Ralphe Rickman and Gill Macdonald. Saturday play was washed out by rain.
Entries for the club men’s fours championship are open, with the first round to be played on Saturday 10 January, 2015. As the club is due to close down in May, bowlers are urged to put teams together to make it a great contest. – The Chalker
