On October 4, 5 and 6, Waipawa Bowling Club held its annual Men’s Pairs event, sponsored by Baron Contractors.
Friday had 14 pairs competing, with 16 on Saturday, to provide a field of 16 pairs for the final on Sunday.
Unexpected drizzle on Friday did little to dampen the spirit of the tournament, and the rest of the weather was great. Some very competitive bowls were played, culminating in a prizegiving where every team won a prize.
The third prize went to the composite team of Ian Mason (Hastings) and Michael Brown (Waipawa). Second were Grant Sargisson and William Ryan from Omarunui Bowling Club, and first place, with a cup and Baron Winner caps, went to Joe Hunn and Zane Egan from Kia Toa Bowling Club. Prizes were given out by Waipawa Bowling Club president, Gordon Annand.
