Dundee bowlers make their mark at Zone Pairs

This past weekend a total of 10 teams from Dundee took part in the Northern Zone Men’s and Ladies Pairs Tournament in Newcastle. It was a lovely turn-out with a total of 80 bowlers taking part with Piet Retief, Volksrust, Vryheid, Newcastle and of course Dundee being represented. Thank you to Newcastle Club for hosting Dundee and supplying them with delicious meals as well as their welcoming hospitality. Congratulations to Carl and Dirk and Lyn and Elsie for making it through to the final rounds however they, unfortunately, fell out in the semi-final round. A few Dundee members were there to support their fellow bowlers on Sunday morning (swimming pool included). Great fun was had by all! Winners of the Men’s section was Phillip and Soon from Vryheid, Dot and Marie from Newcastle won the ladies section. Congratulations to the winners.
