25.01.2022 For those who are interested, THE BOWLS SHOW returns on Sunday 13th Septrmber at 3.30 pm on 7TWO with a special that includes a visit to clubs affected by the bush fires earlier this year. I'm not sure if this is the first of the new season or not.

24.01.2022 As 2021 approaches, Club Championships start again. Fours is our first Championship to start. The calendar for 2021 is jam packed, so we need to use any available weekends. The Match Committee will endeavour to complete the rest of the calendar in the near future.

24.01.2022 Dave Reynolds. Whilst calling in at Mick Collier's I popped into see Dave Reynolds (they live next door to each other) and his health is not good. Dave has given me permission to update his health situation partly so that he doesn't have to give a report every time someone asks as he finds it hard to talk about. He has been diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer and is being treated accordingly. He has decided not to have chemo treatment but to, as he says, "eat what I want, drink what I want and enjoy what time I have left" Dave still has his sense of humour which will help him through difficult times ahead. He is happy spending time with his mates at the club especially on a Thursday night.

13.01.2022 Monday 5th October- Citos bowlers pairs event.

13.01.2022 Today the Citos ladies played their Fours Final. It was a match where the result didn't truly reflect the game. In the end the team of Marg Kennedy, Darlene Woods, Helen Rusten and Joyce Harkness beat Yvonne Smith, Jenny Fitzgerald, Linda Meiser and June White by 23 shots to 13. The game started in perfect bowling weather with Marg's team opening up a 5-1 lead after 5 ends. June's team hit back to make it 5-4 after 7 ends. For the next six ends it was June's team that did mo...st of the scoring to take a 9-7 lead at the half way mark. Then the wheels fell off for June when Joyce's team scored 4,3,1,3,5 to June's1 shot and to take an almost unbeatable 23-10 lead. On the penultimate end June picked up a three bit it was too late with a deficit of 10 shots and only a possible 8 on the last end. The game was notable in the first few ends where both teams had a problem with their weight, Many bowls were way past the jack even if the line was true. Eventually the ladies settled down to read the green correctly and some great bowls was played to the extent the Umpire, Sue Zoszak, was called to many heads to determine shots by as little as millimeters. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS AND COMMISSERATIONS TO THE RUNNERS UP See more

10.01.2022 Friday morning social, Jersey Day, supporting organ donation awareness..

10.01.2022 Of course it was Michael Bourke who paired with Troy Gumm and not Gary - I need to go to Specsavers asap!! Sorry Michael.

09.01.2022 It is with great sadness that I have to inform you that former Citos bowler David Birkin passed away last night. Dave had been in Hammond Care for some while and was suffering from dementia. He was transferred to paliative care recently where he died. Many of you will remember Dave as a dour committed Yorkshireman but Dave had a great sense of humour and was great fun to be with away from the competitiveness of bowls. He was a club champion many times including at least Singles 4 times, Pairs 6 times, Triples 2 twice, Fours twice and Major Minors once. Dave now joins his beloved wife Flo on a bowling green somewhere in the sky. RIP Dave.

09.01.2022 Congratulations to Rod Taylor and Cael Arneman who won today's Major/Minor Pairs by beating Rob O'Rourke and Michael Bourke by 20 shots to 13. Rob and Michael reached the final by beating Shaun Parnis and Tom Chidiac 18-17 in the semi-final and Rob and Cael in their semi beat Brian Fox Jr and Rob Lawrence 18-13. In a game played in magnificent weather that had no drastic effect on the bowls some great shots were played throughout the game and Cael held his own with the "old g...uys!". Rob and Michael took first blood with a two followed by one from Rod and Cael who then scored a four to take a 5-2 lead. This was the highest score for an end all game and from then on until the last end it was ones and twos from both teams. The 5-2 lead established was never bettered although the scores were within a few shots all game. On end 20 Rod and Cael were holding a 17-13 lead and picked up an unbeatable three to win the game by 7 shots with the final end not being played. As an indication of the skills involved end four was a cracker. Cael after his three bowls was holding one shot; Rob with a beautiful bowl took the kitty back for one; Rod then repeated the dose and took the kitty further back to hold one; Rob then drove Rob's bowl from the head for one; however there was enough space for Rod to once again draw for one shot for the end. A great game by all four players and especially Cael who showed no nerves in the game with his elders and showed how his sportsmanship and opponent appreciation has improved over the last couple of years. Word had got around and even the Red Baron flew over to see what was going on. See more

05.01.2022 Citos Ladies Nominated Pairs Final. Congratulations to Kim Suckley and Chris Ellem who beat Agnes Chalker and Sally Golding in today's Ladies Nominated Pairs Final by 26 shots to 9. Whilst Agnes and Sally are skilled bowlers, on the day, they met their match and were well beaten by a couple of ladies who were on fire. After 6 ends Kim and Chris we leading 8-2 when Agnes and Sally picked up a four to make it 8-6 and it was game on. However a series of ones and twos follwed by... a four and a five saw the lead shoot out to 21-6 before Agnes and Sally picked up three on the next two ends. A one and a four on the 15th and 16th ends brought the game to a premature end at 26-9. Many of the ends went down to a measure and on end 13 Agnes and Sally were holding 5 shots when Kim drove into the head to reduce it to two shots and then Agnes unfortunately disturbed the head and she and Sally only picked up one shot. The shot of the day had to be on the 16th when down in a crowded head Kim drove the kitty into the ditch with Chris holding the next three shots. Whatever Agnes did she wasn't going to reduce the 4 shots and it was game over. A most entertaining game with some great bowls played. Thank you ladies. See more
