(Lou -Ann Hope photo) Lawn bowling for everyone • from page 1 any tournaments they have. To be listed in the book, the club must belong to the association as does the Lucknow Club. Lawn bowlers can participate in any number of tournaments at any club just by calling the club and registering for the event. "If you were good enough, you could go to the nationals and the worlds," Mrs. Treleaven said. She added "if you are go- ing to compete, it's usually the younger people who have the skills to do so" which is why the Lucknow Club is encouraging younger people to come out and try lawn bowling. "For a sport, there is no better value from your money," she said. In Lucknow, lawn bowling is held every Tuesday night at 7:30 p.m. and every other Thursday night at 7:30 p.m. (Thursday nights are alternated between Lucknow and Wingham) . . "To play Tuesday night, you pay 50 cents. If you win your two games you get your money back. On Thursday, you pay $1.50 and you get lunch and if you win your two games you get a chance at a prize," she explained. Membership for the Lucknow Club costs $25 per year with new members joining for $10. Entering tournaments can range in price from $3 to about $15, Mrs. Treleaven noted, adding "In tournaments, 60 per cent of the money taken in is put out in prizes." Unlike tournaments which require players to dress in "whites", Tuesday and Thursday night play at the Lucknow Club does not require players to wear all white. On Sunday, the Lucknow Club held a lawn bowling tournament. Thewinners were: first, Grace and Orville Elliott of Lucknow; second, Jack and Marie Muir of Seaforth; third, Jack and. Audrey Mac- Donald of Lucknow; fourth, the brother - sister team of Jack and Maudie Fisher of Lucknow. The consolation winner was Cliff Ashton and Jean Gray of Clinton. If you are interested in learning more about the sport of lawn bowling or would like to try the game, contact the co - presidents of the Lucknow Club, Jane and Jack Treleaven, at 528-2943.
