When we drove around all the Horsham clubs last Friday we were told about the bowling green at Horsham Golf. We didn't have that one. We visited and they said we can come for social on Tuesday.
on Friday we met Ken, Dennis and Harry who were hanging around.
They are the Blue Wrens.
The green is named for Jeff Sprunt who was a former Secretary who passed away and left the club $170 thousand. It saved the club.
They were able to put in a synthetic,
new seats
and upgraded the clubhouse.
The green isn't named but the shelters are.
TUESDAY
We came back for our game on Tuesday. We arrived super early so decided to roll up. Mal was all over it as usual. Every time Jean got shot he took it off. What a mean husband!😒. It was pretty hot so we just did a couple
After a while Harry came and opened up.
There are ten players today Jean and nine blokes. We have pairs against triples. 3 bowls and skip two for triples and four with 2-4-2 for pairs. Two games of ten and one of six. The leads don't roll the jack the skips place it to save time. It's a bit complex but it works.
First game Trevor and Mal
Played Peter, Ian and Jean.
First end Jean had three but Mal took two out. She said "I'm glad we did that rollup!" The final score was one up for Jean's team.
Second game Mal played Mike, Neville and Wayne.
Mal and Trevor were doing superbly.
Jean's team played Graeme, Rink (Ian) and Frank.
They won the first two ends then Jean put one on it. In the end Jean's team got killed.
Mal won game two 23 to 16. We swapped opponents for the six-end game. Jean thought she bowled brilliantly but as lead her opponents bowled better.
Like this!
The guys remarked how well Mal was bowling. They want us to play Pennants for them on Saturday but we've committed to Mortlake and will be too far away.
We came inside for drinks.
Mal and Trevor won the money with 35.
Jean went outside and met Selector Magaret.
