The Warburton Bowls Club Summer Pennant Season commences this Saturday October 21.

The Burras are looking forward to more overall improvement this Pennant Season across all teams with several promising younger players coming through.

The Weekend Competition sees Warburton 1 playing Lilydale 2 away and Warburton 2 playing Healesville 1 at home in Round 1.

The Midweek Competition commences on Tuesday October 24 th with a game at home against Upwey Tecoma 1.

The final practice match last Saturday saw the Burras play their friends from Upwey-Tecoma BC across all rinks. It was a great hit-out leading up to the start of this coming week.

The popular Wednesday Night Barefoot Bowls Triples Competition (sponsored by Professionals Yarra Valley Real Estate) commences on November 8 with a full fixture of 16 teams participating.

The Social Bingo Nights, leading up to the Barefoot Bowls, commenced last Wednesday Night at the clubrooms with all who attended, experiencing an enjoyable evening of fun, food, great prizes and entertainment. Thanks to new members, Aimee Dostie and Mat Stoessiger, for their wonderful coordination of this social activity.

It was great to see a couple of the new Barefoot Bowls teams having a roll-up and practice on the green before the Bingo commenced. The Social Bingo Nights will continue on October18 and 25 and November 1 from 6.30pm. Come along and join in the fun.

Social Bowls continues to be played on Mondays from 12 midday with excellent numbers regularly participating.
