We were lucky again to have a great food option on Wednesday night with Steve and Micheal preparing food for us, we had a choice of either a marinated Lamb steak or Chicken Fillet served with a Beetroot Salald and cabbage & crispy noodle salad and you had your choice of a roll or crusty bread.

Thanks to the boys and those that helped clean up, plus our bar staff. We will be open on Saturday from 2.00pm so do come along and enjoy a game or two.

We wish our competition players the best of luck on Sunday at the next round of the interclub being held at Gawler.

And now for something completely different....a blast from the past (well, 1994). Check out the shooting style of Tunisian Mohamed Ferjani, not to mention Marco Foyot's hair before it became gray!
Also, how many holes can you patch? Maybe the rules were a bit different back then!
A game well worth watching to the end!

State mixed doubles today at Prospect saw two predictable results: Prospect turned on the sunshine and Van and Ha won yet another state title.

26 teams competed on a glorious winter's day, with the following results:
- Principale: Van and Ha defeating Ken and Deb Rodda
- Consolante: Haejung and Alexi defeating Charlie and Dave
- Knockout challenge: a very happy Valentina and Richard V beating Craig and Jean
- Conviviale ran late due to a tight semi, with Brian and Rae prevailing over Ned and Selina
- The very Conviviale saw Ken and Pam defeat Tim and Val.

Brett umpired and served tirelessly all day, David J fetched and helped with lunch and the Prospect crew all chipped in to setup, serve and clean up.

Thanks to all the helpers, and of course Anthony for doing the organising.

Well we were lucky last night to have a great meal to warm us up, as cool as it was, thankfully no rain considering what fell over the week-end, which was 70mls in 36 hours.
Even though it was on the cooler side, it did not stop games happening while dinner was being finalised. Val and Tim prepared a tasty meal of Tandoori Chicken served with Tomato Lentil Dahl, & Tomato Cucumber salad. So a big thank you to our cooks and to those that cleaned up after the meal.

See you on Saturday for "The Saturday Competition" starting at 2.30pm regsiter by 2.25, $2.00 to play winner takes all. See you Saturday! There are 6 players on a 1 point handicap.

We held the Wednesday night Melee on another cold winters night. Many of us stayed inside unless we were playing. Thankfully there was no wind so with our coats and hats we could play two good games of Pétanque. In between we were treated to a lovely meal made by Roberta and Pierre which included Honey Mustard chicken served with Rice and for dessert was Sticky Date Cake served with Ice cream.

Thank you to the Chefs and the Bar staff for keeping everyone lubricated!
