Great work across the country, spreading the word about our sport!

We have replied to every enquiry received from the Hamilton area so please keep an eye out for new faces and make sure they feel welcome at your club.

Indoor Bowls week this year was our best one yet, with over 120 people reaching out to NZIB directly and many more participating in events hosted from Whangarei to Southland.

It is heartening to see the enthusiasm and energy we have within our community- well done.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

A Busy and Successful Fortnight at Beerescourt Indoor Bowls Club!

We’ve had plenty happening at Beerescourt over the past fortnight, with two great events bringing members together.

Our first monthly Open Pairs Tournament was a real success, attracting 20 teams. It was great to see bowls returning to the side hall, which was used for the first time in many years! While it provided a challenge for those playing out there, it added to the spirit of the night.

After two section winners played off, Logan Thompson and Raewyn Tonks took out the win, with Gheorghe Sirbu and Lesley Monk finishing as runners-up.

A playoff for third saw Donna Reynolds & Steve F defeat Christine Foster & George Neville.

Congratulations also to John Gavin and Jim Hitchens, who were our raffle winners on the night.

Thanks to our club members for providing a lovely supper, and a special thank you to Ray Marshall for stepping in on the day to help square up a team, and to Raewyn Tonks for travelling from Pukekohe to compete.

Most teams have already rebooked for May’s tournament, with room for just two more teams - get in quick!

On Tuesday 7 April, we held our Champion of Champions Fours.

Congratulations to the winning team of Gheorghe, Mark, Margaret and Murray, with Christine, Barbara, Sacha and Harry finishing runners-up. Both teams were equal on wins, with the title decided on ends – 11 ends to 10 – a very close contest!

Well done to everyone involved and thanks for continuing to make Beerescourt such a great club. 👍
