It’s been a bit of a chilly winter around the region this last week – sunny days but very, very cool nights and the occasional frost in some places to keep the greenkeepers worried.<\/p>\n

Still, the weather doesn’t seem to have deterred keen bowlers and there have been good roll-ups for lots of games.<\/p>\n

Most clubs are close to tidying up their Club Championship matches at the moment, and I have the results of several of these for you this week.<\/p>\n

So let’s jump right in:<\/p>\n

Yarraman news:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Yarraman Men\u2019s and Ladies clubs caught up on their club championships this week.<\/p>\n

In the Mixed Doubles championship – a quarter-final – Bill and Lorri Holmes defeated John and Jenny Moore 18-15. <\/p>\n

This win put Bill and Lorri into a semi-final against Neil and Di Currell, in a real nail-biter of a match that wound up turning into a battle of the long-enders.<\/p>\n

Bill and Lorri were away comfortably until end 14 when a five by the Currells evened things up a bit. <\/p>\n

The pressure was on from there, though, with the score at 20-all by end 20. <\/p>\n

The final end went to a measure, with only inches – or should I say millimetres – in it.<\/p>\n

But in the end the Currells triumphed, narrowly taking the match 21-20. <\/p>\n

The other half of the draw are now dragging the chain, with one quarter-final still to be played. <\/p>\n

The Ladies B Singles final was also a very close affair, with Jenny Moore defeating Alison Anderson 25-23.<\/p>\n

And in the Men’s Bowls – Mixed Pairs:<\/p>\n
