Bowls Orewa

Quad Challenge - Friday July 10th - Matariki - round two of four at the Hobsonville Bowling Club.
This 1-8 year competition with a real focus on our 1-5 year players was held under perfect conditions with a nigh on cloudless sky, and the slightest breeze.
With 4 teams of Mixed Fours from each of the participating clubs, Orewa, Hobsonville, Manly and Browns Bay the atmosphere was a great mix of fun and laughter with a healthy dose of that competitve edge thrown in for good measure.
The outcome at the end of the four games saw just the one team go through unscathed, one of our Orewa teams performing outstandingly to claim the main prize, with our other teams all performing most admirably.
Hobsonville were outstanding hosts with a delicious morning tea courtesy of some delicious home baking from their members, an excellent selection of hot pies and sauasage rolls for lunch, and of course their renowned bar service, with delivery direct to the players courtesy of their roving bar lady Dee.
The next Quad day is set down for Sunday September 6th at the Manly Bowling Club.
Pictured is our victorious team:
L to R:
Paul Hollows (two), Carol Hollows (lead), John Paladin (three), Wayne Harris (skip)

DILS FUNERAL SERVICES OAC TRIPLES - July 9th

Another fine, but chilly day lay in store for the 32 teams who lined up for a crack at the GOLD in our weekly Thursday tournament, where an added layer or two for those who came prepared undoubtedly made the day far more comfortable. Another healthy turnout of visiting teams and individual players certainly created a great atmosphere and made for some very closely fought encounters.

We again had the pleasure of welcoming back to our club Louis Potgieter from DILS FUNERAL SERVICES, our sponsor for the day. Louis spoke positively and enthusiastically of DILS ongoing association with Bowls Orewa. We are most appreciative of DILS FUNERAL SERVICES continued and generous support of our club, thankyou.

This week provided the most competitive day we have had for some time, with the 4 game/12 end/2 bowl format perhaps a contributing factor. There was a logjam at the top with x4 four winners and x5 three winners., with differential coming into play to determine second, third and fourth placings.

1st place: Gary Wallace, Peter Clark, Mal Wallace 4w, 32e, 70p

2nd place: Mike, Clint, Blue 4w, 29e, +30 diff

OAC Triples - July 2nd

Another day in paradise lay in wait for the 28 teams gathered again for their weekly bowling fix. With a clear but brisk start the extra layers certainly came in handy for the first hour or so, and not surprisingly there were no serious grizzles, if a little chill in the air was all that there was to prompt such a comment.

The results were most definitely more evenly spread this week with just the x2 four winners, x1 three & a half, & x4 three winners scapping for the five main prizes up for grabs.

1st place: David Batchelor, Darrell Purdie, Ron Haydon 4w, 23e, 47p

2nd place: Shirley Nielsen, Bryce Tippett, Brian Taylor 4w, 21e, 39p

3rd place: Chris Taylor, Murray Mathieson, Jan Calcott (Takapuna) 3.5w, 20e, 40p

4th place: Wayne Harris, Paul Hollows, Chris Bailey 3w, 24e, 43p

5th place: Gary Colhoun, Warren Seeque, Steve Hicks 3w, 19e, 39p
