Pennant Update
At the completion of Round 16, with 2 home and away rounds still to play, all of our teams are looking good after another big season.
The top side are sitting at the top of the ladder in their section and cannot be toppled now. That's a great effort and they'll all be looking forward to finals action against either Boronia or Mt Waverley in the first instance. Warburton has been a formiddable opponent in that section and they have 2nd spot wrapped up as well. I'll be putting money on a Upwey-Tecoma vs Warburotn sectional final.
The second side has consolidated second spot in their section behind Ferntree Gully. Being more than a full game in front of the third placed Mooroolbark, it has yet to be decided just who will make up the 3rd and 4th spots. Doncaster is making a late run for the finals and now sit 5th just behind Eastwood Golf. Either way, the second side will be playing finals and that's a great achievement.
The third side got off to a flyer and were in the top 4 consistently in the first half of the season. A few close results that didn't fall their way and a few other losses led them to the bottom half of the ladder and the prospect of possible relegation. The good ship third side has now been righted and look to be sufficiently in front of 9th spot to avoid the perils of relegation. With two rounds to go anything could happen, but with the team back on an even keel after a great win last weekend, they should make a run for round 18 with some confidence. Consolidating a spot in Division 7 after gaining promotion last year is a great result and one that will surely be built upon next season!

2013 Medley Tournament - has been run & won
The tournament was run with a full house of 24 teams - that's 96 bowlers on our wonderful greens on a lovely summer's day! HOW GOOD IS THAT!
Thanks to all the members that pitched in to run the day in manner of ways from the running of the games, to making lunch, serving lunch, running the bar and more. And MANY thanks to the friends of our wonderful club that also helped out and gave freely of their own time.
We had visitors from near and far - including a bus-load from Fish Creek. This was on the back relationships formed when our caravanning Tigers on Tour ventured to the Gippsland last year. Awesome!
A visiting team from Broadmeadows took the spoils on the day, and from all reports it was a cracking day.

*** 4th ANNUAL COMEDY BOWL - LATE BREAKING NEWS ***
Due to production of a television series in which Lawrence Mooney is involved, he will now be in Western Australia when Comedy Bowl is on. That's Lawrence's loss!
Don't despair, because what I can tell you is that we have secured the services of Des Dowling for the evening. You'll recognise Des from such shows as Agony Uncles (ABC), Talking to the Animals (Ch 9), Coxy's Big Break (Ch 7) as well as his various shows at the Comedy Festival and other comedy venues around town. After starting out as a news and current affairs reporter for ABC, Channel 7 and Channel 9, Des turned his focus to comedy which is just as well for us! For more info on Des, visit his own site here.
