Morrison Ave Bowling Club

The club held the Mixed President's trophy today to bring the season to a close. There was a great turnout of members and plenty of fun had by all. The winning team was presented with the trophy at the annual prize giving that followed.
The Summerset Lounge was packed for the formal part of the afternoon as our President handed out the trophies. Full results and photos will be on our website.

What a fantastic night it was to end the 32nd edition of the Morrison Avenue business house tournament. We had everything alined, great weather, enthusiastic teams and a great night to finish. The vibe on the greens and in the clubhouse was excellent and everyone enjoyed the occasion.

Morrison Ave Business House 2026 is underway after a false start last week. A much better night with great conditions. This tournament has been running for well over 30 years and it's great to see many teams returning year after year.

Please note that access to the club is currently only available from Sawyers Arms Road. The Council are updating many of the services in Morrison Ave and there is no access from Langdons Road.
We have been guaranteed access to the club at all times and will post updates as they come to hand.

Post section play well under way at Morrison Ave. Another great day and greens are running about 17.5 - 18 seconds.
In the Women's Singles and Men's Pairs play is down to last 32.
Both competitions are nearing the finals and we have been able to watch some great bowls.

Have just posted the full draw for the Women's Singles and Men's Pairs. We also have a section on the men's post-section pairs being played at Morrison Ave.
Another busy day so would great to see as many as possible down to watch and possibly helping out. It's been a big week for the club and shows how we can host events of this size.
In the draws tomorrow are Mandy Boyd (Women's Pairs Winner) and Shannon McIlroy as well as many other great bowlers so well worth coming down to watch.

Men's Pairs update.
Unfortunately Simon and Campbell couldn't manage that final win to clinch a place in post-section. They were beaten 10 - 16 in round 6 which they needed to win to qualify.
This was great effort from the guys and congratulations from all at Morrison Ave.

Remember tomorrow we have a round of the Women's Singles post-section. The draw will out later tonight so we will lined up for some great bowls.
