Gus Gillespie winner in Brisbane



Gus Gillespie winner again
The players

Gerry Vickers with the wooden spoon
In another hot day here in Brisbane with the mercury hitting 37.6° at one point during the tournament the action was equally as hot on the boards, with our biggest turnout in about a year with 6 people it was a fascinating tournament with the usual suspects in Gus Gillespie and Giuseppe Tardiota contesting the grand final but the shock of the day has to be Gerry Vickers, the champion from only a couple of months ago ended up with the wooden spoon, it was good to see Andy Rigden back in action after quite a while out with injury and he got a few victories with more to follow I'm sure, Chris Scoles continues his upward trend and is definitely not far from being a contender and to finish we had a touch of Hollywood at today's event with Sylvester Stallone keeping goal and Michael Caine in defence for the escape to victory team.

Australia: Eliot Kennedy wins Falcons tournament


Eliot Kennedy returned to his winning way with a victory in the Northern Falcons TFC's March WASPA at the Willoughby club.

But it wasn't before he suffered a shock 2-1 loss to the rising star of the Falcons, young Oli Ollnow.
With Singapore visitor Vikas Chandiramani in attendance, the 8 player event was evenly contested over the first three rounds.

Eliot beat Jonty 2-0, but not before a struggle, then Oli held Vikas to a 1-1 result. Steve fought hard for his 1-0 win against Neil, whose defensive flicks were of the highest quality: it was a pity his attacking play couldn't match them. Herman beat Adrian 1-0, then when Jonty and Oli drew 0-0 and Eliot beat Vikas, there was a chance for the other two to qualify - until Oli caused the upset of the night and beat Eliot.
In Group 2, Hermann dominated Neil 2-0, while Adrian staged a fighting comeback to beat Steve 2-1 after it was 1-1.

Again in the last matches there was a chance for Steve to qualify, but a 2-0 loss to Hermann put paid to his hopes.

In the semi finals there was no heroics from Adrian against Eliot who won comprehensively, while in the father-son battle, it went down to sudden death shots for Oli to make the final.

In the final, Oli's iron defence thwarted Eliot for long periods, but one slip proved costly. Oli had a few chances of his own, but in the end it was a fine victory by Eliot.

Once again thanks to all who attended, especially Vikas, and to the Willoughby Park Bowling Club for their ongoing support.
