Today we were greeted with a very hot day to play the 1st Round or our Championship Fours: M. Toovey, J. Morrissey, D. Rapley and L. Robertson (winners) d J. McPhee, V. Hall, B. Donohoe and N. Mawhirt; M. Firth, D. Mason, J. Pugh and B. Murray (runner up) d J. McDonald, A. Perkins, A. James and H. Barnier; M. Elliott, M. McClaer, D. Lawson and J. Weatherstone (lucky losers) were defeated by J. McWaters, M. Buckley, A. Bowling and A. Williams.
Resting toucher today went to Lola Robertson. Competition winners were M. McClaer, N. Mawhirt, A. James and M. Elliott.
Most of us were back again to play our twilight game later in the afternoon, no doubt we are a hardy lot. Lovely to see both Greens full and everyone enjoying a game in the cool of the evening. Winners were the Raspberries (L. Andrews, O. McDonogh, E. Johnson), runner-up went to the Nectarines (M. Wilkinson, A. Mason, D. Mason). Lucky losers were Blueberries (S. Taylor and A. Perkins).
Resting touchers tonight went to A. Williams and R. Want. Lucky ends drawn were 5, 10 and 13 and this sees the Plums (K and J. Morrissey and R. Want) still out in front. With 3 weeks to go in this competition any team can still win, it depends on the lucky ends drawn on the night.
