Wind does not deter bowlers

NUBMERS were down for the Millicent Bowls Club’s 2-4-2 competition last week due to the funeral of one a long-time club member, Maureen Fitter.

However, 41 players still registered to play in windy conditions.

Robby Chambers and Ian Ross claimed the honours on the day with a score of 33+17, from runners-up John Eldridge and Peter Hyland with 32+7.

Other winning teams: David Nuske/Bill Burdon 31+13; Terry Lonergan/Peter Scanlon 31+11; Ross Warren/Andre Reinders 31+11; Peter Bateman/Robert Atkinson 31+6; Arthur O’Connell/Derk Pietersma 31+4; Lurlene Reinders/Steve Carnellor 31+3; Malcolm Wright/Terry Barnes 30+6; Bob McKenzie/Neil Whelan 29+3.
