The game was played over 10 ends on 2 rinks.  The result was a draw and everyone had lots of fun whilst the rain stayed off for the afternoon, followed by a light tea in the clubhouse.  We look forward to playing team highland again in 2026..

Summer 24 to date has been a definite disappointment but it was perfect bowling weather for the Beauly Gala Week Pairs Competition organised and held at Beauly Bowling Club on Friday, and the good weather inspired some great bowls.

A 10PM start saw 10 teams from a number of local teams including Muir of Ord, Conon & Maryburgh, Dingwall , Glenurquhart, Ex Presidents and others compete in a round robin format to qualify for the semi-finals in the afternoon. The warm weather certainly seemed to encourage some inspired bowls and keenly contested games.

The semi-finals, saw Beauly pair Gordon Walker (last year winner but this year paired with Beauly’s Derek Flynn) face Angus Shearer and Mike Murray (Ex Presidents). The Ex Presidents pair were cruising to a place in the final until a disastrous 5 on the penultimate end and despite clawing a shot back on the last end, the Beauly pair progressed to the final on the narrowest of margins.

In the other semi-final another Beauly pair, Tony Boyland and David Barnes faced John Meharry and David Oag (Dingwall BC)) again the visitors appeared to be in charge until the penultimate end when a 4 gave the Beauly pair the lead and ultimately the match.

In the final Tony and David dominated their fellow Beauly opponents to take the title – a terrific performance by Tony and David who were unbeaten throughout the day.

Jackson Grant, the Beauly Gala Prince (and whose great grandparents -the Kerrs - were Beauly Bowling Club champions in the 1950s and 60’s) was fittingly on hand to present the prizes and the winner’s trophy to Tony and David.

Thank you to all from the club who helped in the preparation and on the day and a big thank you to the bowlers from all the clubs that attended who made it a great day of bowls and quality chat.
