Southern Open Triples location changed

Category : News Item 2019

The Southern Open Triples, scheduled for August 16 – 18 will move from Rotary Park to the Stanley Park Lawn Bowling Club.

 

Both the Stanley Park and the Royal club are limited in rinks so there is a limit of 14 teams for each event.  The event also relies on a minimum of 6 teams!

 

Registration deadline is August 9, so still plenty of time to gather your team and enter!  Teams get $15 for each win and if six teams register the prize money will be $195 for 1st, $135 for 2nd, $90 for 3rd and $60 for the 4th place team. Those amounts will change with more registrations!
