Parksville Team Places in Scotch Pairs Tournament in Courtenay
June 2, 2025

Parksville Lawn Bowling Club
It was a tale of weather opposites in Courtenay this weekend when the club hosted its annual Scotch Pairs Tournament. Saturday morning’s early draw was played in a torrential downpour, with players having to adjust for the conditions. Saturday afternoon was slightly better, with the sun daring to peak out. Sunday was a dream for bowlers as the clouds were few, winds light and the green playing as they should.
On the green, it was the home team of Henri Saucier and Heather Devine taking first place. Port Alberni’s team of Neal Wilson and Derek Burke took second. Parksville’s Ken and Carol Bucyk came in third. Rounding out the winners were the Courtenay teams of Dean Penny and Shelley McCollom in fourth and Peter Harding and Carole Nelson earning fifth.
Many thanks to all the people who made the tournament a success. The pierogi lunch on Saturday and sandwiches on Sunday were a real treat, too.
Next up on the calendar for play is the Men’s and Women’s Triples which takes place in Qualicum Beach June 7 & 8. This event is sponsored by the good folks at Quality Foods.

Parksville and Qualicum Beach Lawn Bowling Clubs have reached agreement so that club members can play in specified open draw matches in the other club without payment of visitor fees starting Sunday, June 15, 2025.
Initially, there will be a limit of 8 “exchange” tags offered on a first come/first served basis.
Process
• A visiting member shows their membership card to the draw-master and is given a “Guest” Tag. (Qualicum has some Parksville specific tags.)
• The visitor writes name, skill level (L – Lead/Second; T – Third; S – Skip) and club identifier (P or QB if needed) on Tag and hands it back to draw-master.
• The Draw will occur normally with the draw-master ensuring a good mix of guests and locals.
• Visiting skips may be offered skip positions at the discretion of the draw-master.
Here is the initial list of weekly open draws offered under this arrangement.
