eljay 1,711 Report post Posted December 29, 2020 For the uninformed, that is Lawn Bowls - the National Pairs & Singles commences at Auckland and North Harbour venues Saturday with what looks to be a huge (record?) entry received. New Zealand in the past has been very strong in both the Mens & Womens divisions worldwide and some great contests are guaranteed over this tourney. For anyone in the greater Auckland area with an hour or two to spare a stroll down to the local greens could be a satisfying and different way to enjoy the summer sun over the next week. Well worth considering. Patiti 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eljay 1,711 Report post Posted January 5, 2021 The womens singles & mens pairs titles have been won. Not a bloody word in the mainstream media. Typical - Megan & Whatshisname more important! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eljay 1,711 Report post Posted January 5, 2021 Great to hear Patiti - up here the media don't give a rats about sport - newspapers are just gossip rags. Most race meetings over holiday period no fields or results reported. And they reckon readership has risen - ha bloody ha!
