The renaissance of SA pétanque continued in Round 2 with a population explosion. Undeterred by the threat of showers (which fortunately stayed away for the most part), a staggering turn-out of 87 players took to the pistes at Novar Gardens.
Stirling Silver Doubles will be held on
Sunday 5th April 2020 commencing at 10:30am.
This is a doubles event and is open to everyone. No need to be a league member. Just find a player to make up a team of two.
The day will be run along the same lines as a League Day.
The club can provide boules and the bar will be open.
Contact the Adelaide Hills Club Secretary.
This year’s Mixed Doubles Championship was played under ideal conditions – mild temperature, warm sun, no wind, no rain, no hail, no fog. The sort of weather one normally gets at Stirling when there isn’t a petanque tournament on.
Perfect spring weather, some serious petanque and plenty of bonhomie were the rewards for a large turnout of competitors in Round 2. As usual, the Gawler club went all out to make it an excellent day, serving breakfast as well as lunch to the hungry petanquers.
SO THE IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER ARE….
Stay excited! The 2019/20 Summer Series will commence on Wednesday 23rd of October at 7.00pm at the Clubhouse.
There will be a ‘Warm Up’ pre-season session on Wednesday October 16th at 7.00pm for teams to register and for players who don’t have a team to put their names down for inclusion.
New players are very welcome and as always the club will be able to provide boules and equipment at no charge on the night.
The bar will be open and toasted sandwiches will be provided at no cost. Usual entry fee of $4 for members and $8 for casual players.
If you have any questions or queries please contact our secretary Ashton. Details below.
