Polo shirts were replaced with waterproof jackets when 44 members of the South West Gippsland Midweek Bowling Group headed to Loch for the weekly challenge.
Cool, showery and windy weather made things challenging for some, but the Loch and District Bowling Club was typically turned out in beautiful condition.
President John Nicholson signed in the players while Vern and Bev efficiently organised the teams.
Sociable banter and lots of laughter ensued with quality bowls being the order of the day; although a few of our charitable bowlers were happy to assist the Royal Children’s Hospital with some wrong-bias bowls.
As usual we have our winners and then we have the rest of us and today’s winners on 35 points were Mike Dady (S), Paul Latham (3) and Ron Hughes (L).
Runners up on a score of 33 were John Nicholson (S), Shirley Corcoran (3), Gwen Jeffrey (2) and Helen Blake (L).
Best One Game winners on 21 points were Vern Elliott (S), Brenda Moloney (3) and Beb Hyslop (L)
This week we will be meeting at Corinella Bowling Club to once again fight it out for team and teams of the week.
Please be on site by 10am to allow time to prepare the teams.
Unfortunately, with numbers generally reaching our capacity, we will have to be strict on a 10am cut-off time.
Meanwhile, until then, have fun and stay safe.
