Robbie Robinson
Bowls matches are organised with various Probus Clubs in the District from Muswellbrook in the west to Tea Gardens and Dungog in the north. Usually up to 26 teams play on the day.
The Newcastle Probus Bowls Team.
Bowls has recently been re-established within the Club with one newly constituted team now preparing to participate in the Greater Newcastle Probus Open Pennant competition. The team undertakes practice sessions on Monday afternoons and Gala Tournaments each Friday at the Lowlands Bowls Club.
The Pennant Competition involves the participation of Probus Bowls teams from throughout the Greater Newcastle area, with events being hosted by respective Probus clubs. As a participant in the Pennant Competition, Newcastle Probus will act as Host for one of the events, at a date and venue yet to be confirmed.
The Pennant Competition offers competitors the opportunity to meet and participate with other Probus members in an enjoyable and friendly day out at a variety of lawn bowl venues throughout the region. Competition whilst competitive is lighthearted and a convivial lunch followed by prize giving completes an excellent day out.
Members will be advised of the Regional Competition dates and venues as they become available.
Current Schedule:
Monday 15 September- Lorn Bowling Club
Monday 29 September- Probus Club of Fern Bay
Monday 20 October- Scone Bowling Club
At this stage our one Bowls team comprising Barney Whitehead, Brian Prior and myself will participate in all three events.
