Women's Open Singles
Five of our women entered the Women's Singles last
weekend. Competitors had to put up with damp conditions but by day's end Angela Boyd was our only club
representative to make post-section play. The final was
between Margaret Wilson and Liffy Law, both Havelock North.
The new Women's Singles champion is Margaret Wilson.
Thank you to those people who volunteered
as markers. Your help is appreciated. |

Etiquette -
No One deliberately Plays A Bad Bowl
When you are Skip, remember that the players in your team
are as anxious to win as you are, and that it is bad form to
remind any of them that they have put down a bad bowl. They
know that equally well as you do - and it hurts more if you
remind them of it by word, grimace or action. All bowlers,
including Skips, play bad bowls at times, and lose games,
too. |

GALA'S GETTING CLOSER - March 10th 2010
Please save your old magazines, books
and jigsaws. Start potting your cuttings, preserving season
is near, maybe an extra jar can be put aside for our stall.
Any odd balls of knitting wool that can be used by our
'crafty ladies' would be gratefully received. There will be
a basket available in the shed for your donations of wool. |

QUESTION |
Question: Sometimes after the last bowl has come to
rest you think it might topple over and finish closer to (or
further away from) the jack. Are you allowed to wait in the
hope a bowl might fall over?
Law 40 Deciding the number of shots scored
1.
The process of deciding the number of shots scored should
not start until the last bowl required to be played in an
end has come to rest, or 30 seconds after that if either
skip or opponent in Singles asks for this 30-second period
(for example, to see whether or not a bowl lying at an angle
will fall of its own accord within that time).
2.
If either skip or opponent in Singles has asked for a
30-second period, no bowl which is likely to fall should be
secured during that period. |
