Winter Pennant starts on Saturday 3rd of May.![]()
We're planning on entering 3 teams this year to capitalise on the enthusiasm and wonderful results we've experienced over the Summer and during the Night Pennant season.![]()
Let's keep the positive momentum going.![]()
So, who's keen to play ?
The Dream is Over![]()
However it was a 'dream run'.![]()
Our Juggernaut came to a halt in the Divisional Semi Final.![]()
Considering we managed to win our Sectional Grand Final after finishing 4th on the ladder, we can collectively celebrate the season as a successful one for our club.![]()
A special mention goes out to Team Manager Paul Jenkins.![]()
Since joining us he's taken on the role of Team Manager and Motivator. ![]()
He's taken the club up a few notches and two flags in three seasons is the reward for his efforts and Princes Park's new ethos.![]()
So, let's keep rolling and keep this momentum going.![]()
The end of April sees the Winter Pennant season commence and Sunday 27th of April is The Carlton Classic our annual tournament.
The Princes Park Carlton Bowls Club juggernaut keeps gathering 'steam' and winning finals. A solid effort out at Mitcham against Dandenong Club yesterday.![]()
A special mention goes out to Ian 'Ironside' Cunliffe. ![]()
His wife had a serious fall on Friday and ended up in Intensive Care.![]()
Ian left the hospital in the morning to drive to the game. His rink won by 20 shots and dominated from start to finish.![]()
The overall win never looked in doubt with that buffer. He occasionally goes by the name of Captain Courageous. ![]()
A splendid and courageous display indeed.
Will the juggernaut continue.![]()
We play Dandenong Club out at Mitcham in tomorrow's Divisional Quarter Final.![]()
Ironside Cunliffe, that's him on the right just keeps on giving. And we managed to keep Jules Anthony Maccioni out of the frame. He somehow always manages to sneak into the picture.
We won our Grand Final![]()
A surreal finals series saw us win 3 consecutive finals, all of them convincingly.![]()
We ended up finishing fourth on the ladder after the home and away series, just stumbling into finals, we really did it the hard way. ![]()
The season was patchy and there was some average form to deal with. ![]()
The team that finished fifth on the ladder had beaten us convincingly on both occasions. And the side that finished second on the ladder had given us a 'spanking' on the last game.![]()
However we hit peak form for finals ( when it really counts ).![]()
The turnaround these last few weeks has 'electrified' our members. ![]()
The atmosphere around the club is palpable.![]()
'How did we pull this off'.![]()
A huge shout out to our valiant opponents Thornbury who were the stand out team all season having finished top of the table.![]()
We've developed a competitive rivalry in recent seasons, having won a few flags against them. They're a vibrant club with a passionate member base. It's the closest thing to the Barmy Army in bowls. They really do inject PASSION into bowls. Our beautiful game would benefit from a few more Thornbury Bowls Club around the traps. ![]()
Our work isn't finished, divisional finals start next Saturday .
