Tight bowling for pairs honour

THE pairing of Bob Solly and Phillip Wilson claimed a close overall victory in the Mount Gambier RSL Club Men’s 16 Handicap Pairs tournament.

The day saw 14 competitive pairs enter, with each pairing not to exceed a total handicap of 16.

The format for the day was three games of 10 ends, with the winners the pair with the highest number of points at the end of the day.

The quality of bowling was high, with all pairs producing some of their best bowling, which resulted in no three-game winners.

There were eight pairings which finished with two wins and one loss which meant that the winning team was determined by the number of ends won over the day.

Solly and Wilson claimed the honours with a total of 60 points, from Michael Fox and Geoff James on 58.
