Final Club Tournament of the Year Winners Decided

September 20, 2024

Parksville Lawn Bowling Club

The  last major tournament of the year, the Gloria Wilcox Men’s and Women’s Triples Tournament took place on Wednesday and Thursday September 18th and 19th under almost perfect weather conditions.  For the men, it was the winning team of Rick Dolley, Howard Auld and Bob Ashton.  Martin Fereday, Clive Arthorne and Ken Tait took second, while the team of Andy Burton, Andy Burpee and Tex Gooding rounded out third place.

On the women’s side, Merry Danarti, Leslie Leinweber and Miriam Gunn pulled off a first place finish.  Second went to Mary Card, Jeanette Ferguson and Avril Adamson.  Third place honours were earned by Sandi Mitchell, Barb Campbell and Donna Dunn.

These top six teams then played off against each other for the coveted Salmon Cup Trophy with the men coming out on top and with that, getting the honours of being this year’s winners.  The men earned 4 points, with a +4 differential and 8 ends, while the women got 4 points, a -4 differential and 7 ends.

Some  big thank yous go out to the following folks who helped to make this final event a success:  Vicki Banks, who came out of retirement  to do magic in our kitchen, greens crew, set-up crew, the bar for keeping us hydrated, our club photographer, Chuck Benson, Joey Merrell and Sandi, who were the go-to people for this event,  the games committee, Kathleen Motley, all of the players and spectators who came, and to the novice and intermediate players who stepped up and got involved in this tournament.

This tournament officially finishes our outdoor activities and the fun now switches to the indoor ones which begin with mahjong on September 30th.  Please check previous entries for times, dates, prices,  and coordinators.
