Dear Members,

Please read the attached document which details the bowling events involving our Club during the week beginning Monday 9 June.

On Tuesday evening at 6.45pm at Parkside, our representatives in the Gents’ Bowls Scotland District semi-finals will be in action. Stuart Campbell will take on Carrickknowe B.C. in the Singles while our Pairs (Keith Bennett and John P Simpson) have a match against Slateford B.C. The Fours (Clint Cassidy, Jim Connor, David Sutherland and Brian Sharp) will be competing against a rink from Carrickknowe B.C. All the best, guys. If successful, our teams will play in the District Finals at Currie on Friday evening at 6.30pm. In addition, we are hosting four semi-final ties on the green on Tuesday evening at 6.45pm.

The final of the Ladies’ Bowls Scotland District Junior Singles involving two girls from Sighthill B.C. will be held on the green on Tuesday evening at 6.45pm. Please try to get along to the Club to see two of the best young bowlers in Edinburgh in action.

On Saturday 14 June, the Ladies’ Bowls Scotland District 15 Finals will be held on our green starting at 10.30am. Although we do not have any representatives involved in these matches, please try to get along to the green to see some of the best lady bowlers in Edinburgh in action.

Then, on Sunday 15 June, the Bowls Scotland Mixed Pairs Final is scheduled for 6.30pm at Brunstane. Hopefully, our representatives (Joan Mitchell and Alan Mather Jnr) will be competing in this match – if they are successful in their semi-final match tonight (Sunday). All the best, Joan and Alan.

1. Finally, a reminder of a couple of upcoming internal events
   We are still looking for 4 names to take part in the Gents’ Friendly away to Carrickknowe B.C. on Saturday 21 June at 2.00pm. This is always a very enjoyable afternoon and we would encourage you to play if you can.
2. The annual Millar Cup for Mixed Pairs is scheduled for Sunday 29 June at 2.00pm. Please add the names of your Pair to the list on the ‘Mixed’ Noticeboard if you are available to play.

The Management Committee.
