Last weeks Summer Doubles Nocturne was rained out and cancelled in the second round. This surprised my wife and others in different parts of Sydney who did not get rain! Oh, well let’s hope this week is different! Warm up for Wollongong on what we hope is a hot night. See you there!
Please note; dinner will not be available at the club so please BRING YOUR OWN!
This week’s Twilight Boules at Ballast Point was a blast with 12 new locals popping along for a toss and a few repeat ‘customers’ not to mention BA diehards including Wayne ‘The Genera’’ Melville (I shall return!). Last week I forgot to mention the reappearance of ‘Big’ Serge Taravel as well. All good! Also. Pommy Petanquer Al is from Suffolk Not Sussex. Makes a huge difference apparently!
See you at Thursdays Boules at the Billi from 5:00!

Sunday the 22nd – SuperMelee at the Billi
Because this event is signposted at the ground, it is imperative to go ahead on the 4th Sunday of every month and so despite the Summer Nocturne Doubles the night before we will still be hosting the Sunday SuperMelee. This week we will continue the choice of form your own team or go in the SuperMelee… but with a twist! You can only play with your partner for the first 2 rounds and in the 3rd round everyone will be in the melee! This will open things up a bit and give more people a chance to get amongst the prizes plus spread the experience around a bit!
Points are awarded to individuals and the final will be played featuring the top 6!
Time: Be at the ground by 1:30 (Please don’t be late!) Finish: 4:30 (approx.) NOTE: Slightly later start due to midday heat!
