Club Bonspiel 2012

Cathy, Sheena, Karen & Pauline

Well done to Dale Callander, our Vice President who, with his team managed to negotiate their way past Graeme's rules into a narrow one shot victory over a jet lagged Mike Wood.  Graeme also managed to beat Morgan by a single shot and with the same number of ends won, they headed into a simultaneous (on different sheets) draw the shot.  In keeping with the evening, the rules for the final shot were changed as both players commenced their deliveries.  The overall results show that Dale and his team of Sandy Nicoll and Rosie Clark were the actual winners, but in keeping with the air of festivity, everyone was a winner.
A great night was enjoyed by all.

E.L Province Knock-out

Congratulations to our team of Nicoll, Nicoll, Nicoll and Maguire who eased their way past Yester to progress to the next round.  Morgan, Graeme, Sandy and Lorna, took a three at the first end and a single at the second to earn a four shot lead.  After that all the remaining ends went to a single, with the hammer, leaving Aberlady six points to three winners.
We will face Doo'cot in the second round, who pulled off the surprise result of the night by beating East Linton thirteen shots to six.  All East Linton's six shots were scored in one end !

The team for our second round match will have a very different look with both skip and third off on Canadian duties.

There is a supper at the ice rink and we will be sitting down to eat at 5.45pm before heading on to the ice at 7.30pm.  Please try and be at Murrayfield for 5.30 so that you can order your main course and pudding in time.  All club members, relatives and friends will be welcome at the supper.
