SouthWest Men's Vet/Novice Tournament September 2024

From Linda Love, Mackenzie Park Lawn Bowls Club:

There were 18 entries in this tournament, and they came from Cambria, Oxnard, MacKenzie Lawn Bowls Club, Santa Barbara Lawn Bowls Club, and Friendly Valley. Two games were played before lunch and two after lunch, and I can personally say that four games in one day is a lot. Scott Roberts did a fantastic job of keeping track of the scorecards and ran a smooth ship. When the final results were in, Scott said the scores were the closest he had ever seen in this tournament. Teams from Oxnard came in FIRST, Bob Williams with Jack Bucey, and SECOND, Art Roberts with Tim Adkins because they won all four of their games. Michael Stein and Linda Love came in third with 3 wins and a loss, and the team from Cambria came in fourth with 3 wins and a loss.

Martinez Memorial Triples Tournament April 14, 2024

From Club President Jack Bucey:

It began at 6 AM under cloudy skies. The kitchen was fired up and the rinks were set up. Then the players began arriving 3 x 3. We had a full roster of 16 teams.
The weather report showed no rain until around 11 AM so I started the games 15 minutes early in hopes of beating the weather. The report said rain 11 to one then clear sunny skies. We made it to about the 10th before the rain came. And it got wet! All the teams were troopers and we all finished in the rain but soaked.
The doused players  all scattered into the clubhouse, where our lovely kitchen ladies, Gloria, Cathy and Susan had a beautiful lunch prepared and another pot of coffee brewed. Lunch was a great success and it was decided to trust the weather report and start game two at noon in a light drizzle expecting to dissipate shortly with blue skies behind. Wrong!
The rain began to pick up and by the sixth, and it was raining hard. Everyone hung in and we finished game two with rooster tails and hydroplaning bowls. And then another coffee.
After whatever clothes and hat changes could be made, viola, blue skies came out onto the green and smiles onto the contestants faces.  The day finished on a high note as one of the most memorable tournaments came to a successful close and the teams got into their arcs and sailed home.
Thanks to all the teams and crew that made it out for the tournament and soldiered on to make it successful.

Final Standings and photos below.

First Place: Phil Dunn, Angel Rocha, Giulia Gallo.

Second Place: Rome Williams, Peter Wetheral, Alexis Dela Garza.
