• In a tough singles section, Pauline Bourne won two of her games (including one against a current Australian rep), going down in the other game to a former Australian rep by just one shot, narrowly missing out on winning her section. • Wendy and her teammate made it through to the final 32 in the open pairs, going down 15-13 on the final end. • In the Women’s Over 60’s Pairs there were 84 teams in 21 sections. Lee Leach and Coral Smith did very well. They won their section and their knock out games and progressed to the last eight. Their Queensland opponents, the reigning champions, took charge of the game straight away and were eight shots up before Coral and Lee came into the game with a two shot end. They fought on to the last end going down 21/12. Well done and congratulations to all nine Sorrento bowlers. You did us proud!
Croquet Report Social Events Croquet enjoyed a quarterly social lunch at the Kingsley Tavern in April, which was attended by most of the players, their partners, friends and a few past members. The next lunch will be held at the Club in July. The monthly “Visitors’ Day” has been suspended during winter as the weather is rather unpredictable during this season. We look forward to resuming these days in early Spring.
