APOLOGIES FOR THE LATE POST…TECNHNICAL ISSUES
Another somewhat brisk night (code for cold/unseasonal) brought 26 teams out onto the beautiful Payneham greens for the last round of the season.
With the ladder all but set would the night end in a surprise result and another team knock The 3 Regions off of their perch. Time to step up Couldabeens.
Blackhill Boomers…contenders for top spot…could only manage a draw with The Old Italians
Marche…firmly entrenched in second spot…had a big win against The Knight Riders but not big enough to unseat The 3 Regions
Some high scores from the other games with 4 Ever Young, Gully Gallopers, Just, Gilligan’s Island, Bowlers 2.0 and The Optimists all on 30 plus points
Overall winners of the night were the always threatening Bahamas with a healthy result of 31 points and 16 shots up. Well done Anthony, Marty, Jess and Robbie. Anthony claims that this is their first ever winner of the night. Hard to believe from such a well credentialed bunch.
Now for the big one. Winners of the season
- In 3rd place the unlucky Blackhill Boomers who with one hand on the prize dropped games
- In 2nd place current champions and past winners on 3 occasions Marche
- Top of the table. A new team and one to watch in coming seasons…you guessed it… The 3 Regions. Well played Frank, Frank, Carmine and Luke. Keep up the good bowls.
First jackpot number of -10 had no takers. Second draw of + 16 brought a smile to the faces of The Bahamas (good finish for this team) and Last Drinks with both teams sharing the $240 pot.
So to all of our bowlers. Thank you for your continuing support of the Payneham Bowling Club. Have a safe and happy Christmas and New Year and we will see you all again next year on the 12th of January.
