District Pairs Winners Decided in Qualicum

The Qualicum Beach Lawn Bowling Club was home to the District Pairs Championship  September 14th and 15th.  Winners of the event were the home club’s Mike Ward and Helen Roberts who took gold and the trophy, beating out  silver medal winners Vern Greenhill and Leone King from Courtenay.  Both had a 4-0 record going into the  final match.

Also of note were the four Parksville teams who had entered the event.  Last year’s winners and defending champions were Ken and Carol Bucyk who ended up with a 3-1 record, as did the Club Pairs Champs, Robbie Thomas and Don Urquhart.  Sandi Mitchell and Wayne Larocque as well as Mary and Kent Card represented our club.

A big thank you goes out to everyone from the Qualicum club who made the event such a success.  Thank  also to the games committee who made this all happen as well as to all the participants who played  under perfect weather conditions.  The District Pairs Championship wraps up the last of the District tournaments for the year.
