Hi Everyone,
A quick update on our Winter Cup progress.
Women’s:
Sheryl’s team won two out of two on Friday and finished second in their pool. They will play in the semis on this Friday. A Big Thanks to Jeanette Orgias for replacing Joy Watkinson. (we miss you Joy).
Gerd’s team had two losses on Friday. They had one game to play this Friday but will not play as both teams cannot qualify.
The finals will be played at Manly this coming Friday.
Men’s
At Hobsonville the Sharks were in attacking mode, winning three out of three. This takes them to the top of their pool with six wins from six. A BIG thank you to Bruce McClintock replacing Allan Langley.
On the fast Green at Warkworth our teams had mixed results .
Wayne’s team had two wins and now sit in fourth place with the top four making the quarter finals. Thank you to Tony James and John Lindsay for filling in. John has been awarded the best filler inner ever. So much so he was the first person picked in the team for the last round this coming Friday.
Leon`s team struggled all day having three losses which easily could have been three wins with a bit of luck(or some better bowls). They sit sixth with two wins.
Jim Price`s team had one win out of three. They beat Leon in the first game, with John Gledhill moving from three to two ,and making some crucial bonus point saves. They sit in seventh with two wins.
All these results , the remaining matches and the ladder are all on the NHB website in news on the second page under, Winter Cup Bowls Hub Links.
Hopefully we can qualify two if not three Men`s teams for the finals and we wish Sheryl`s team all the best for the finals.
