Pennants 2023
Our Pennant WINNERS – Men’s Division 9 and Women’s Division 8.
Summary:
- Pelican Waters played in 1 Women’s division (Div 8) and 6 Men’s divisions (Div 1, 4, 7, 8, 9 and 10),
- 5 of the Men’s teams played in the semi finals on Sunday morning 24/9/23,
- 2 of these won this game and played in the final in the afternoon and the Division 8 Women and Division 9 Men were placed first after the final round and played the winner of the morning game in the afternoon,
- Both the Women’s Division 8 and the Men’s Division 9 played in the final and won these games and were winners of the Pennant for that Division and players were presented with Pins by a District representative after the game,
- The Women won 51 to 36 over a valiant Palmwoods team at Caloundra,
- The Men won 49 to 39 over a very strong Headland Pacific team at Maleny,
- The Men’s Division 1 team played at Pelican Waters and was narrowly beaten by Kawana in the morning and that team eventually went on to win the final,
- The Men’s Division 4 team played at Mooloolaba and beat the home side in the morning however the team was narrowly beaten by 2 shots by a very strong Palmwoods team,
- The Men’s Division 7 team played at Woombye and lost to Buderim in the morning and Buderim won this Division after an extra end had to be played to determine the winner of the final in the afternoon,
- The Men’s Division 8 team played at Waves and had a good win over one Maroochydore team in the morning but were beaten by the other Maroochydore team in this Division in the afternoon,
- The Men’s Division 10 team played at Maleny and were narrowly beaten by Maleny in the morning and then Maleny won again in the afternoon.
Some “interesting” Pelican Waters facts for the 2023 season:
- There were 10 women and 70 men that played in one more games across the Divisions during the 9 week season,
- Both the Women and Men’s selectors met at least once a week to select the teams for each week and did an outstanding job to qualify players for the finals, balance players availability and give all players an opportunity to represent their Club,
- Pelican Waters had at least 2 Divisions playing at home each week and the Club provided umpires at these games (and a special thanks to the umpires for your assistance during the season especially at the Division 1 Finals at Pelican),
- Teams travelled as far north as Tewantin Noosa and up to Maleny with our players regularly visiting Mooloolaba, Maroochydore, Headland Pacific, Kawana, Coolum, Nambour Heights, Buderim, Yandina and Waves across the Divisions,
- Each team had a Manager that assisted with the required paperwork to organise players and record scores,
- This season saw a large number of new bowlers playing pennant for the first time. These players benefited greatly from playing with Pelican team mates in this team format against other Club’s players at different venues.
Pennants 2022
The Men’s Division 8 team have done it! They won the Pennant in a dominant display against Yandina at Yandina. The score was 54 – 23. What a fantastic result and congratulations to everyone who played Division 8 throughout the season.
Well it was not quite the result we hoped for on the final weekend for the the Men’s Division 4 and Division 6 teams.
Both the Men’s Division 4 and Division 6 went down in the semi-finals in the morning, meaning they didn’t progress to the Final in the afternoon unfortunately. Both divisions lost to Kawana teams who went on to become the eventual champions. So while a disappointing result on the day, it was a great effort to get into the semi-finals to begin with and everybody should be very proud of their efforts.
Semi-Final Results
Men Division 4 v Kawana @ Kawana – Loss 37 – 74
Men Division 6 v Kawana @ Kawana – Loss 36 – 38
