- the 2024-25 Club Championships will kick off on the 2nd Saturday in October - more information is coming on this

- also starting in early October we will be entering teams in other club's tournaments, giving you the opportunity to play all over North Canterbury on weekdays and some Sundays
- regular coaching sessions will be organised throughout the season
- and of course, every Tuesday and Saturday, get ready for a fun-filled afternoon of bowls and camaraderie

Mandeville Bowling Club - Opening Day, 21st Sept

03/02/2024

Mandeville Bowls

Blokes, Bowls, Bangers and Burgers Events



Mandeville Bowling Club is running two tournaments - aimed at locals who may wish to try a new sport and have a lot of laughs and fun. You will soon realise it not just an ‘old persons’ sport and a lot of skill and guile is involved.



Those who enter will be teamed up with an existing club player in a game of pairs (explained below).

Places are limited to 16 non-club members (who will pair up with 16 club members). Entry is on ‘first in, first served’ basis as our green can only accommodate 32 pairs players.



Entry fee is $20 for each day. This includes a sausage n’ bread to start and a burger at the end. Please bring cash on the day as we do not have eft-pos facilities.



Tournament dates are:



Sunday 18th February

Sunday 17th March



Both tournaments will start at 12 noon for a bite to eat and an explanation of the format. Play will start around 12:30 each day and go to approximately 4pm followed by burgers and some refreshments.

Pairs explanation

The games will be ‘pairs using a 2-4-2 format. But don't worry, it will be explained on the day by your teammate. Pairs allows everyone to play all four bowls and have more game time and fun.



Please reply to [email protected] expressing your interest in one day or both. Please ensure you include your name and contact details. These fun days are popular but we have to limit entries to the first 16 entrants so be quick!



Regards
