Burras lose to Mulgrave



 Warburton Bowls Club’s number one side played Mulgrave CC 1 at home.

Mulgrave quickly adjusted to Warburton’s rink conditions and led most of the day before winning 61 to 76.

Rink scores were as follows: P. Caneva 12/23; S. Lord 17/20; J. Van Der Zweep 19/13 and A. Donohue 13/20.

The Burras will play Mentone 1 away this week.

Warburton 2 played Donvale 2 away on a tricky grass rink.

The wind also troubled both teams.

Once again, the Burras’ second half let them down as Donvale steadied to run away victors 62 to 97. Rink scores were B. Hall 18/20; M. Cima 13/27; D. McConachy 15/30 and G. Wynd 16/20.

The improved performances from Warburton’s beginning players are very promising.

The side will play against Croydon 3 at home this week.

New and beginning players are still encouraged to join the small, friendly club.

Coaching is available from qualified coaches.

The Mid-Week Tuesday Pennant team played Chirnside Park 1 at home and in a tight finish, the scores were tied 55-all.

Rink scores were as follows: G. Walsh 24/15; R. Zunneberg 17/24 and R. McKail 14/16.

The Burras will play Monbulk 1 away this week.

Social bowls continues on Mondays from about noon. New and beginning players are most welcome.

The Wednesday Night Barefoot Bowls Competition starts this Wednesday 31 October.
