INGLEWOOD’S Division Five midweek pennant bowls team remains second on the ladder after the match against Woodbury on Monday was declared a washout.
The Division One team team’s clash with Golden Square was also washed out, leaving the side in last spot on the ladder after seven rounds.
In weekend pennant, the Division Five team fell to an experienced Bendigo lineup.
Top marks went to the team of Edna Patterson, Dionne Roberts, Patsy Lyndon and Ian Bradley (skip), which managed a five-shot win as Inglewood’s 57 shots (2 points) lost out to Bendigo’s 80 shots (16 points).
The Division One team lost to Bendigo East – 69 shots (2 points) to 77 shots (16 points).
The day’s best result for the day came from the team of Simon Laird, David Vanston, Daniel Garrett and Arthur Harrison (skip), with a seven-shot win.
BRIDGEWATER
The midweek Division Six pennant team sits on top of the ladder, but had to cool its heels after play was washed out on Monday.
The Division Five team travelled to Golden Square on Saturday and at the halfway mark was leading the home side.
The clash ended up as a shootout, with two rinks just missing out in the last ends of their games.
Golden Square won 85 shots (16 points) to 75 shots (two points).
The only winning rink was Glenn Mangan, Tyler Estrada, Glenn Catto and Peter Gath, who won 20-14.
The Goldfields side travelled to Carisbrook, with the home side much too strong on the synthetic carpet. Carisbrook finished with 103 shots (16 points) to Bridgewater’s 34 shots (0 points).
SERPENTINE
Another tough day on the bowls circuit as Serpentine ventured to Kangaroo Flat on Saturday.
Starting early because of the heat to follow, Serp lost all rinks but was close in two matches with Dianne Walker and her team going don by the narrowest of margins and Laurence Cadzow in his return going down by only three.
It was great to have Laurie back bowling. The bowling was followed by asuasage sizzle thanks to Kangaroo Flat.
This week Serpentine return home to take on Bendigo and a win must be getting closer.
