“Aussie Rules” Saturday 13th July
On Saturday the club held an internal “Aussie Rules” pairs competition. It received a great response with 26 members taking part.
The intention was to give players the opportunity to experience competition and undertake lead and skip positions. It was a shift from the normal format usually played but after a couple of ends, a lot of discussion and amusement everyone understood what was happening (I think).
Each player played five matches of three ends each match with a different partner.
Individual scores were kept and totalled up at the end.
Four players tied for third place, Diane Lawrence was second with the winner being Colin Bishopp who is now the proud owner of the “Aussie Rules” upside down trophy kindly made and donated by Cliff Geary.
It was pleasing to see everyone getting on and encouraging one another and offer
help when required. Many members commented on how much they enjoyed the day and are keen to enjoy another “Aussie Rules” in the future.
