Chris beats Graeme to win the 2023 Men's Consistency SinglesThe Mens Club Consistency Singles was played on Thursday. Chris Bergman beat Graeme Manning 156 to 134 in a match where the lead changed hands a few times. A few big scores in the last 7 ends helped Chris come home with the victory. Congratulations to Chris, well played also Graeme but also thank you to all who entered to make this a competitive event. All the results are shown below It was an exciting day today with the St Ives team taking out the Senior Fours title for the North Shore District. After getting soaked to the skin on Tuesday and not quite finishing the match, the ladies returned today in beautiful sunshine. The first task was to complete the 2 remaining ends from Tuesday's game. After defeating the Neutral Bay team, the ladies went on to play a team from Mosman. The St Ives ladies (Sue Byrne, Bev Barton, Jan Woodcock & Di McBryde) played well as a team with each putting in some great bowls. The St Ives ladies meet a team from DeeWhy next Saturday in the Regional playoff to see who will represent Region 15 in the State Championships. Good luck St Ives!  The second Semi Final of the Consistency Singles was played on 15th February. The final will be next Wednesday (22nd) and will be between Graeme Manning and Chris Bergman. Congratulations to both players and well done to all those that had some success in the competition. See draw below. Congratulations to Rod for being the 2021 Senior bowler of the year.
