The Queen Victoria passing the Club as we were closing up.

Oh well that's the Dunoon Bowling Tournament Week over for another year.

Innellan played quite a big part in the week with matches on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

The Club was busy throughout these days with matches at 9am, 11am & 2.30pm. I'd like to thank Carrie & Kathryn for being there with me throughout the week & all the other members who played a big part in helping out by marking, setting out green, cleaning clubhouse, cooking, serving food & drink. It was very much a joint effort & you should all be proud of our wee Club which kept everyone fed & watered throughout.

We had lots of very exciting matches & some excellent bowls played. Most importantly we had sunshine!

The finals yesterday at Kirn & Hunter's Quay BC was an excellent day.

The winner of the Gents Singles (The Harry Lauder Cup) was Stevie Scott from Bogleha BC. The runner up was Shaun Kemp, also from Bogleha.

The Ladies winner was Rebecca Houston from Prestwick BC with the runner up Lorraine Galbraith from Dunoon Argyll BC.

Our Essex Visitors from Wanstead Central BC 

We held our Annual Open Pairs (Aka Archie's Pairs) on Sunday 4 August with 24 pairs taking part. We were so lucky not to have any rain, even though Dunoon had quite a few downpours.

The standard of play throughout the day was exceptional & this continued through to both semis & the actual final. All three games were decided by a one bowl (per player) play off.

The beaten semi finalists were Paul Kelly & Ryan Galbraith (Dunoon Argyll) & James Rippey & Mitch from Wanstead Central BC in Essex.

The finalists were Stevie Scott & Stewart McInnes (Bogleha) & Callum Goffin & Rikki McIntyre (Kirn & HQ/Bogleha).

It really was one of those finals when no one deserved to lose but, as we know, it doesn't work that way. Commiserations to Stevie & Stewart & congratulations to Rikki & Callum. It was a fantastic final to watch.

Thankyou to everyone who made it such an enjoyable day, with a special mention to the 6 Essex boys for joining us for the second year.

Last but not least, a huge thanks to Nan & Jim Cook for their sponsorship of the tournament.

Innellan held the Cowal B.A. Esson Cup on Saturday 29 June. It was a super day with all Cowal Clubs playing 2 x Fours, each team playing 5 games.

COWAL B.A. FINALS


Cowal B.A. Singles Winner
 
Cowal B.A. Pairs Winners


Cowal B.A. Fours Winners

On Saturday 6 July we had 14 finalists fighting it out for the Cowal titles.

We were so lucky with the weather & we must thank the supporters who came along from each of the kindred Cowal Clubs, whether or not they were being represented.

With the singles between Steven Girvan (Dunoon Argyll B) & Stevie Scott (Bogleha A), the Pairs being Dougie Lauffer & Archie Tait (Innellan B) & Eddie Wallace & Jimmy Reid (Kirn & Hunter's Quay A) & the Fours - Jim Campbell, Iain Buchanan, Hughie MacPherson & Stuart Strachan (Dunoon Argyll A) -v- Cameron Boyd, Davie Downie, Callum Galbraith & Billy Kelly (Dunoon Argyll B).

The singles was a great game with Steven G taking an early lead & holding on to it for the first half of the game. Stevie S then started to pull back & was starting to catch up but time was running out & then when Stevie S was lying shot at 20-17, he caught Steven's bowl with his last delivery & it was all over.
Congratulations to Steven G taking the Cowal Singles Trophy for 2019, presented by Innellans' President Curly Black.

The pairs was rather a one sided game with Eddie & Jimmy monopolising the game from the start. Archie & Dougie tried their best but it just wasn't to be their day. The "new" Pairs Trophy was presented to Eddie & Jimmy by Bogleha's President Dougie Whyte (with a vote of thanks to Bogleha for providing the new Trophy).

The fours was a close game right up to the 11/12th end when Dunoon Argyll A pulled ahead of their clubmates & took the trophy. Congratulations to Jim, Iain, Hughie & Stuart.

Dan Whyte, Secretary of the Cowal BA thanked Innellan, as Host Club, for looking after everyone so well & congratulated all the winners & runners up.

He said it was always good to see a new name on the Trophies.

Afternoon tea & a raffle followed the presentation. Thankyou to our visitors & members for providing raffle prizes & thanks to all the helpers.

We hope you enjoyed your afternoon by the seaside as much as we enjoyed having you.

BOWLS SCOTLAND TIES

Just a wee update on Innellans' journey in the Bowls Scotland Ties over the past few weeks.

Unfortunately we have no one representing the Club at Northfield this year but Nigel Potts did reach the semi finals in the Singles. Congratulations to him.

Myra Campbell made it to the District Finals in the Senior Singles (yet again) but it wasn't to be & she has another Scottish Runner Up Medal.

Well done to them both reaching the latter stages & to all the loyal supporting members who travelled to Victoria BC with Myra.

(We did have a lovely lunch afterwards though).

There's always next year!

Lastly we would like to extend our best wishes to the Cowal bowlers who will be representing their Clubs (Bogleha, Kirn & Hunter's Quay & Upper Cowal) at Northfield.

Winners & Runners Up
   

Spider Winner - Bill Strathdee

Bowlers retrieving their bowls following The Spider

We held our Mixed Triples on Saturday 08 June, with 42 bowlers on our Green. The forecast had been dreadful all week for Saturday but we were actually lucky in that we had sunshine for the first 4 games, up to lunchtime.

Then it was as though someone had turned on a switch and it got dark, with heavy rain and thunder. From sun lotion to coats, scarves and brollies in the space of ten minutes. It was certainly an interesting day.

We'd like to thank Peter & Elliot of The Osborne for their continued support to our wee Club, Andrew our caterer for looking after us all, all the visiting bowlers from Colintraive, Dunoon Argyll, Lochgoilhead, Rothesay and Upper Cowal, and all our own club members for helping out throughout the day, with special thanks to Carrie.

Meg's Ladies Tennis Champion Wins
What an achievement to have won this trophy on an amazing 32 occasions between 1976 to 2010. 
1976 & 1978 are hardly visible on the board but you can just make them out.

10 members of IBTC took part in the inaugural Meg Henry Memorial Rosebowl Tennis Tournament today at Innellan Bowling & Tennis Club.

After a closely fought game, Nic Thorley took the trophy with Liz Gower proving to be a very worthy runner up.

Thank you to Tom Henry for coming along to present the trophy to the winner.

Thank you to all the helpers who looked after the players & guests throughout the day.

It was a wonderful afternoon with the bowling & tennis members getting together to celebrate the input from Meg Henry over many years.

As the winner (Nic Thorley) said, "Let's hope this trophy is played for, for many years".

Thanks also to all the members who came along to help out. It was great to see the camaraderie between the tennis & bowling sections.

News Items 2019


AGM

The AGM was due to be held on Sunday 17 November in the Clubhouse and, indeed, it did start off well enough, with 18 members attending.

Unfortunately, when it came to the Agenda Item for Re-election of Committee Members, there were no willing parties. It was quite sad really as members had been pre-advised that the President, Secretary & Vice President were standing down at the meeting, and also advised that there were four ordinary committee places to fill.

Following a lengthy discussion on the importance of 'Committee' to the Club (see IBTC Constitution), President Curly stopped the meeting until a later date. The date for the new AGM will be set at the Committee Meeting on Monday 25 November.

All members have been advised by email of the above.

For the sake of our wee Club, we can only hope that the members get together and a solution is found in time for the new AGM.

Thanks to all the Innellan members who helped out, with special thanks to Carrie & Dave.

The winners were from Kirn & Hunter's Quay BC (Jeanette Campbell, Gary Matthews, Bridie Ferguson & Jimmy Reid). Congratulations to them.

QUIZ NIGHT

21 members & friends turned up to take part in the Quiz, held in the Clubhouse on Friday 18 January.

A wee bit disappointed there weren't more members but it was still a good night.

Many thanks to our resident Quizmaster Alison who gives up her time to support the Club.

Our winning team with a convincing win in the music round were "Three Ladies & One Boy" comprising of Jan Pender, Nancy Morris, Irene Hodge & Lee Burns.

The runners up who were the leaders at half time were "3 + 1" (Mary Brooks, Alan Reid, Ian Wright & Jim Pender).

A nice night with good friends, plenty of food & refreshments.

We will hopefully have another Quiz in March sometime when hopefully it will be a little warmer.

Watch this space.
