Post section for the Mixed 2x4x2 pairs was played on Monday 27th April.
Previously Graeme/ Flora had defeated John/ Lorna 11-10 in the first quarter-final with Flora winning the game with the her last bowl.
In the three remaining quarter finals,
David/Jodie were defeated by Barry/Muy 3-16 after leading 3-1 after three ends. Barry and Muy bowled very well and deserved the win winning the last six ends.
Allan/Sheryl were defeated by Brian/Irene 9-10, after leading 6-1 after four ends. Irene and Brian won the next six ends to lead 10-6.
On the last end Sheryl played her last bowl, they were holding three for a draw, but she was slightly narrow looking for fourth shot and the win, but she trailed the jack back and only had two shots. Ouch!!
Brian and Irene played some very good bowls to catch up and then go ahead.
Elaine/Leon defeated Gerry/Jo by 16-6. The score did not totally reflect how Gerry and Jo bowled but Elaine and Leon bowled superbly and worked very well as a team winning eight of the twelve ends.
Fun fact: If you move the jack when you are holding and you drop shots then the shot will be known as “The Sheryl”.
This coming Friday 1ST May the event will be completed.
Graeme/Flora will play Barry/Muy in the last semi-final starting at 9.00am.
The winner of that game will play Elaine/Leon in the final around 11.15am.
