Closing Day
2:00pm |
There
was a short presentation of prizes prior to the closing day
bowling match, I also took the opportunity to thank the
members for their tremendous support throughout the bowling
season, especially at our parish games.
Over thirty members came along to the closing day and we
enjoyed a lovely afternoon's bowling, a few drinks, then
Scotland gubbed France 1-0 at Hampden !!
Well that's
the bowling season over ..... I have been very honoured
to have represented Cambuslang BC as President, a club
I joined in 1989 and one I have great affection for. I have
had great support all year from the members and special
mention must go to Derek McCutcheon & Alex Hardie
who have worked tirelessly all year in and around the club.
I also thank my Board of Directors and again special mention
goes to Match Secretary Harry Faulds, Greens Convenor
Peter Phillips, VP Jim Low, Treasurer
Alex Helm and
Hon President
Jim Montgomery Sen. It would have been very difficult without
their wonderful support.
We now move into the 'close
season' and monthly cabaret's and quiz nights, I hope the
members continue to support the club, unfortunately with my
'band'
commitments I will miss most of the cabarets but thanks are
also due to our Social committee who continue year on
year to bring much needed revenue into the club..........

Kirkhill BC v CBC
2:00pm |
This is Kirkhill BC Centenary year and we
were delighted to take five rinks to our near neighbours.
Kirkhill Bowling Club opened in 1906 and Cambuslang Bowling
Club was one of their main sponsors and indeed we played our
very first parish game against each other in 1906 which made
this venue very important to the two Presidents. |

Cambuslang VP Jim Low, President Will.McArthur, Kirkhill
President Morris Smith, VP Jim Cunningham |
President Will McArthur of Cambuslang BC &
President Morris Smith of Kirkhill BC have been friends for
over 20 years and both of them eagerly awaited today's game.
Cambuslang BC presented Kirkhill with a commemorative
centenary gift and both Presidents exchanged club badges
symbolically cementing the friendship between both clubs.
The weather was very wet and the green conditions stopped
play after 4 ends. The rest of the afternoon was spent
renewing old friendships and talking of the old days.
Hopefully this fixture will be played for another 100 years. |
