A great day at the Sixes
With 34 teams all arriving on time the annual Sixes tournament was off to a great 'Sporting' start on a beautiful day at the Sir Don Rowland Centre, Lake Karapiro.
After Team photos were taken (thanks to Bruce and Dawn Hancock) all attendees were welcomed by our President Paul Phillips (his first Sixes - both to play and attend).
Directors Caroline and Murray Wiggins wheeled in from Hawkes Bay in their cycling gear.
Clare Coles our MC throughout the day enjoyed introducied all teams with appropriate comments relating to their team theme and costumes and home bases, dispensed spot prizes during the day and announced final results.
With the usual spot prizes, wonderful raffles and quizzes throughout the breaks between the six round of eight boards (all dealt by Jan Spaans - pretty big job with Michael being on holiday), constant availability of savoury and sweet food (Ailsa and her fabulous helpers) and a great lunch (catered by Carly's kitchen) and the work of Bill Robinson (floor manager) and caddies the day went very fast.
Congratulations to our winners
