Parkes Services Railway Bowling Club

June 26, 2025 By Paul Lewin

Wednesday 18 June we had 26 players for Social Bowls. Winners were Alan Curteis, Rob Clegg and John Corcoran winning 18+17. Runners-up were Terry Hethering­ton, Peter Cowling and Clive Stibbard win­ning 17+19. Marble 24 came out and the margins were 2, 4, 6, 17 and 19.

Saturday 21 June we had 24 players for Social Bowls. Winners were Kane Wyburn and Andrew Trotman winning 17+22. Run­ners-up were Steve Clegg and John Chew winning 15+27.

28 players contested the Carty/Price Shield against Manildra over 7 rinks on Sun­day 22 June. We won 2, drew 1 and lost 4.

Losing overall by 29 shots.

This week we have social bowls on Wednesday 25 June at 1pm and social bowls on Saturday 28 June at 1pm. As al­ways, names in half an hour before start times, everyone is welcome and quality new loan bowls are available at the club.

For those interested in having a roll of bowls, please note the following: Social bowls means anyone and everyone is wel­come to come have a game. If it’s your first time this is where you start. Just come to the club on the desired day at least 45 min­utes prior to the advertised start times and see one of our dedicated volunteers and we will assist with getting you sorted and some bowls and point you in the right direction.

Social bowls is competitive without being too serious. We have some experienced bowlers that are always happy to play with and help new learning bowlers.

See you at the Railway!
Toot Toot!
