It was a very close match between Vicki Bartrop with Chris Bergman playing Di McBryde with Willson Cheng in the 2021 Mixed Pairs Championship. I believe the two teams fought very hard with Vicki and Chris coming away with the win. Congratulations to all the players.
​

The Club's Mixed Fours championship starts next Sunday. Here is the draw.

Bowls NSW and Women’s Bowls NSW had issued a directive suspending all bowls activities including social bowls.  Subsequently Bowls NSW has issued another directive stressing that the suspension applies to all bowling activities and expanded it to include roll ups/practice. 
 
At St Ives we believe that our members must follow this directive and if you come to the club for roll up/practice YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK.
 
We face unprecedented circumstances and these measures are aimed at preventing the spread of the COVID-19 virus and avoiding the lock downs we are now seeing in other countries.  So we ask all members to follow the directives issued by Bowls NSW and Women’s Bowls NSW.

Bowls NSW and Women’s Bowls NSW have jointly advised today that “all association events, competition events, club events and tournaments and this includes social bowls” are suspended effective immediately.  See the announcement attached.
 
This means that both men’s and women’s Pennants are suspended and organized social men’s bowls tomorrow and women’s social bowls on Thursday are cancelled.  However, on both days green 2 will be prepared and jacks and mats put out so that if you want to come and roll up you can.  It is a personal decision.  Please remember the advice we have been given regarding keeping a social distance (1.5 metre) from other people.
