Tenderfoot Tournament – July 11 & 12

Written by Robbie Thomas on . Posted in Need to Know, Upcoming Competitions.

Teams from the around the North Island District (Port Alberni, Nanaimo, Qualicum, Courtenay and Parksville) will be playing at our Club for the Urban Edge Tenderfoot Tournament on July 11 & 12.

Games will be at 10:00 am and 1:00 pm each day with the trophy presentation to take place following the second game on Sunday.  The teams are comprised of players who have played for under four years and each team must have a Novice player (players who have played only a few months).  For some, players, this is the first time they will have played in a lawn bowling tournament.  Players range in age from under 20 to over 75.

We will be offering BBQ lunch (starting @ 11:00 each day) for players and spectators at a cost of $10.00 per meal.

What a great way to spend a weekend enjoying our community while supporting these athletes!

Coaching for Club Singles Tournament

Written by Robbie Thomas on . Posted in Need to Know, Upcoming Competitions.

Coaching for the upcoming singles in August is on the calendar for July 17 and 24.

Participation is entirely optional but if you have never played singles before you will find this coaching useful.  This has been aimed previously at novices but is certainly available to all singles players.  In order that I have the right amount of markers and coaches available could you please email me that you will be there and which day or days.

Thank you, Sandi Mitchell sandramitchell1263@gmail.com

Evening Draws

Written by Robbie Thomas on . Posted in Need to Know.

We are hoping to run 10 End Draws on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, tags in by 6:15 for a 6:30 start.  However, we do not have a Draw Master for Thursday evenings.  Please let me know if you are willing and able to pick up a few Thursdays for the month of July.  If we are not able to secure a Draw Master for Thursday evenings, the Draws will be removed from the calendar.

Thank you.
