As a result of a recent fever, Duchess visited Pet Vet for some blood tests etc. She is much better now but the cost was $340. Pet Vet cover most costs associated with Duchess but the club had to pay this bill. If you would like to make a donation to help offset these cost there is a donation jar on the bar.

Petanque News - Trans Tasman 2017

4/4/2017

1 Comment

 
The following update is by Claire Bradburn who played in this event. 
​The Annual Challenge between NZ and Australia was held at Adelaide on 18/19 March. NZ has previously dominated the competition. The NZ Seniors had previously won 9 out of 12 with the last loss being in Rotorua in 2014.

After the first day Australia were ahead 32 to 28 but with another 60 points up for grabs on the Sunday NZ felt all we needed to do was hit them hard early. We knew we needed to attack before it got too hot. Saturday was 34c and Sunday was expected to get hotter which it did. Unfortunately the day didn’t go as planned and by the 5th and last round we were well back, but a win was possible, all we had to do was win 5 of the 6 Mixed Doubles.

Our best performing Mixed Doubles team lost 13-0 early in the piece. Claire and her partner had not had a good run but came to the party with a 13-1 win. The last 4 games were hard fought and it wasn’t until the last boule was thrown  that we knew we had made it. We were all exhausted including the Coach and Manager. This was Claire’s 10 Trans Tasman and one of the hardest fought.
So Seniors Won 61-59 but the Open team lost 55-65 having previously won 9 tournaments in a row.

We recently reported in Latest News (on 21st March) the success of member Claire Bradburn at the Oceania Championships in Vanuatu.  We now have some photos from the event which was held in less than ideal conditions!  The slide show below shows (1) the winning New Zealand team (Claire is on the left), (2) the start of play on the second day, (3) the results of a tropical thunderstorm which halted the evening session and (4) efforts to drain the arena before the evening session was called off.

Petanque News:  An Oceania Champion!

22/3/2016

We recently received this report from Tim Lovell-Smith:
"Claire Bradburn, Silverstream along with Jean Parley and Margaret Maher from Auckland are now the Oceania Women’s Triples Champions. This is the first time NZ has had any of its teams get past the second round.
In the quarter finals they beat a team from Tahiti who are seen as the top Country in Oceania. In the semi finals they took out New Caledonia, meaning they had to beat Wallace in the final. This game started about 9pm and after 2 ends players had to leave the terrain and attend a dinner and formal ceremony attended by the Minister and other dignitaries. The NZ team returned to the terrain as soon as the speeches were over rather than have a meal. When the officials returned the game recommenced and ended up finishing at 12.30am. with NZ winning 15-11. All finals were played to 15 but the rest went to 11. Claire, Jean and Margaret were popular winners and were given great support during the final particularly from the Vanuatu players and locals. NZ has been last in the standings and while this didn’t change the position for the Team it was a great boost for all concerned. The presentations finished at 1.30am.
Claire has a quick turnaround getting home on Tuesday afternoon and going to Alexandra on Thursday as she is in the Trans-Tasman team to play Australia."
Well done Claire!
