Firstly congratulations to our Woman’s Caro Bowl team who continue their winning

performances and finished top of Pool A and now on to the semi-finals. The 2 home

games have certainly showcased to club and the new deck has certainly come in to its

own with providing so much more viewing space. But let’s not forget the volunteers

behind the scenes, for without their efforts the home events would not happen, and

also those who turn up to support the team. Unfortunately, we had a loss on Friday

at Koru, down 2-6 to Royal Oak.

While it would be good to have the teams full for Wednesday night social, it is still

great to see the courts full and certainly more social off court activity. A warm

welcome to those who have attended these Wednesday night

matches the first time and I trust you are experiencing the

friendly atmosphere either on the courts or after the conclusion over a BBQ

sausage.

And lastly Xmas now is not that far away (where has the year gone), and will be

upon us before we even realise, don’ t forget to put the Xmas party in your

calendar for Sunday 27th November. Come down with the kids and have a hit

around as well… please ensure you RSVP to our email:
