We live in an age where it is becoming
increasingly more difficult to fund all the things we want. Sponsors
help lighten that load. You will notice a change just above this
paragraph where we are acknowledging the help given to us either
directly or via the Mother Club. Please be grateful for the
assistance of these sponsors, make use of their services and let them
know you value their help. |

Taranaki Savings Bank
is the latest sponsor to come
on board.
Thank you, TSB |

INTERCLUB
There was only one Interclub game played last weekend - one of
our Women's triples team v Heretaunga - (Div B)
See results chart below |
|
|
CHAMPIONSHIP TRIPLES - MEN AND WOMEN
Our greens really do look well when they are used as fully
as they were this weekend - sunny weather helps.
Eighteen men's triples teams began bowling at 8.30 am and
continued all day Saturday and Sunday. At 1.00 pm on Saturday
the Women's Triples Championship got under way with ten teams
entered. In both events it was particularly pleasing to see
relatively new bowlers getting involved. There is nothing like
competition to make you concentrate better and improve your
skill levels.
|
MEN - Sunday morning saw five men's
teams still in contention. Teams belonging to Ernie
Friedlander and Gary Heathcote each had two lives while
one lifers included Bruce Mitchell, Rolly Hoare and Rex
Dunn. The balmy day that was Saturday changed to gusty
winds and squally rain on Sunday. Eventually two teams
remained alive and the final was played mid afternoon.
Consistent draw bowling saw Gary Heathcote, Bruce Ferrick
and Alan Ferrick prevail over Ernie Friedlander, Bryan
Gilbertson and Johnny Ward. Congratulations Gary, Bruce
and Alan in not losing one game all weekend.
WOMEN - On Sunday morning three teams
remained unbeaten; Angela Boyd, Sue Brock, Maree
Turner. One lifers included Val Ives, Ann Dempsey, Colleen
McLaughlin and Paula Evans. As the day progressed the team
of Angela Boyd, Sheryl Glock and Barbara Exeter won all
their games. They will now have to play a potential final
against (one-lifer) Sue Brock, Lynda Boyd and Jean Speakman.
TRIVIA
This October has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays, all
in one month. It happens once in 823 years

DELIVERING THE JACK
This sometimes appears to be one of the least-practised skills that
bowlers need to have.
Deliver jack using same action as
for a bowl
Hold jack on the main fingers with thumb on top and
wrist locked
Move onto the mat
Anchor foot is placed on the centre of the mat
Identify the line
Visualise the delivery
(line, weight)
Deliver the jack along the line aiming at the focus point
Lock the wrist and elbow
Stay low during delivery with body moving forward after you release
the jack
Arm follows along intended line of delivery with palm to heaven and
head still
Transfer weight to front foot

|
CHECK THE NEIGHBOURS
If you are on the mat waiting to bowl check to see if anyone is
delivering a bowl on the adjacent rinks.
|
|
QUESTION
You are standing on the mat watching your bowl roll towards the jack.
Sometimes a bowl finishes past the jack, sometimes it stops before the
jack.
If your bowl is 1 metre short of the jack is it high or low?

 HELPERS WANTED
- Men's Championship Singles (30-31 October)
There has been a change in plan

will play two games and the other section will act as markers. In the
afternoon this will be reversed.
Sunday
- MARKERS WILL BE REQUIRED.
If you can assist please add your name to the sheet provided in the
shed.
Thank you

EVERY MAN NEEDS AN UNDERSTANDING WOMAN
Walking into the bar, Mike said to Charlie the bartender, 'Pour me
a stiff one - just had another fight with the little woman.'
'Oh yeah?' said Charlie, 'And how did this one end?'
'When it was over,' Mike replied, 'She came to me on her hands and
knees.'
'Really,' said Charles, 'Now that's a switch! What did she
say?'
She said, 'Come out from under the bed, you little chicken.' |
