....the Maroons play the rest of the world

The day was won by the best team on the day.

   

RIGHT:-   Many instructions were given to ensure nothing but excellence but nobody was sure what the message being given here by Robyn. (also known as the laughing hyena).

   
   

ABOVE:- There are many things of interest to be seen on the green and most appear to be right there at their own feet.

 

 

 

LEFT:-   Last moment lessons before the important game

"No Grandad, that is not how you put your feet.  If you don't get your footing right you could find yourself on a slippery mat."

 

   
   

Right:- One of the younger bowlers does the key test on the green at the beginning of the day's play  He was not impressed with what he found and was happy not to be playin g on this surface.

The green was found to be very wide playing and man y bowlers found that they bowled wide of the mark ......er kitty that is.......

 

   

 

ABOVE - part of the enthusiastic crowd that enjoyed a great day of social bowls.

 

LEFT:- The Peters Family cook the usual evening B.B.Q. for those famished bowlers.

The B.B.Q. is the goal towards the end of the day when bowlers sit and discuss tactics and how things went right or wrong.

Nothing amateurish about the standard of the bowls played here where winning is everything.

Social Days are regarded by the Maleny Bowls Club as a time when new
bowlers can play lawn bowls with an eye on finding a permanent sporting link.

Not only the younger but the more mature bowlers are encouraged.

One of the friendliest Bowls Clubs you will find anywhere....
