GRAAFF-REINET NEWS - The Graaff-Reinet Bowling Club's Chosen Pairs titles were up for grabs this past weekend with six men's and five ladies' teams participating.
Men
After four games, plated over 16 ends each of round-robin bowls, the combination of Arthur Langley and Shawn West led the field on 6 + 17, with Niel Colyn and Pierre Harmse on 6 + 4.
At the end of the day, the Langley/West combination recorded a solid 15-shot win to finish on 8 + 32, to claim overall victory.
Ladies
After three rounds of bowls, only two teams were in contention for the title. In a 'winner takes all' game, Charlene Colyn and Charlotte van der Merwe on 6 + 32, met Helene de Wet and Priscilla West, on 6 +34, to decide the outright winners.
The de Wet duo recorded an 11-shot win and were crowned the champs.
The standard of bowls was of a high quality and worth watching.
