Pennant Bowls Competition

At the beginning of the season, around September, teams are entered in the MBA Pennant competition on Saturdays, Wednesdays (Men’s team) and Thursdays (Women’s team). Currently we have four teams entered on Saturdays, three on Wednesdays and one on Thursdays.

From mid- September, skills training/coaching sessions are held on Tuesdays and Fridays, with our Club Coach, Jayden Zeller.

The greens are available 6 days a week for members’ practice with access to mats and jacks via the coded rear door of the club rooms. Code supplied to members on request.

All greens are closed for general maintenance on a Monday.

The most favoured evenings for practice for most players is Friday when members will make an evening of it by enjoying a couple of drinks at the bar during Happy Hour. When you arrive for practise, please don’t hesitate to ask to join a practice group. You don’t need to practise by yourself unless you choose to do so. You can still work on your game when practising in a group.

Pennant games are played on a home and away basis and we do ask members to return to the club after an ‘away’ match to share in the excitement of the day’s play. Games are 21 ends played in teams of four on Saturday (open gender), commencing at 1.00pm. Wednesday’s (men only) play consists of a variety of formats eg. pairs, triples and fours with games commencing at 12.15pm. The games on each day usually finish around 4.30 – 5.00pm which allows a little time for socialising before the finish of the day. On Thursday (women only), games commence at 9.45am and finish around 1.30pm, followed by lunch supplied by individual players.

Saturday and Wednesday ‘home’ pennant games cost $5.00 per person per match. This pays for sandwiches provided during the afternoon tea break for yourself and your opponent. 

Pennant availability: There is a sheet placed outside the selector’s office that provides for notification to the selectors of player unavailability for all pennant games. If a player has not indicated in the booklet provided then it is assumed that they are available for selection.

If at all possible, players should meet at the club before travelling to an away game to minimise car parking difficulties at the ‘away’ venue.
