The first week of jack attack was held in conjunction with “Bowls for Boobs” fund raiser. Thanks to the hard work of Phil and Jaco it was a huge success.

Note for your diary – presentation day this year will held on Saturday 16th December. Your committee is looking at a slightly different format this year.

Also Christmas Ham Raffles will be held on Wednesdays 6th, 13th and 20th of December.

Also under review is the format of club championships for 2018, with a view to increase entry numbers, and maybe level the playing field for some championships. Some of the championships will be handicap events.

Zone 14 will be meeting this month to finally decide the starting time, and format for pennants 2018. Meanwhile your selectors do require some indication from members if you intend to play pennants next year, even if you cannot commit to the full season. This will allow all players to be registered for pennants with the Royal. See the notice on the board.

Melbourne Cup Tuesday 7th November, there will be mixed bowls starting at 10 am.

Annual green renovations start this week (October 16th) with green 3. This means Wednesday and Friday bowls will be triples, and depending on numbers, triples may be required on some Thursdays.

Please take the time to visit our facebook page which is being regularly updated by Phil and others.
