Mazarrón “Miners” are on a mission
again having had a brief time out after their
great success in winning the CBBA Winter
League. This time their quest is to achieve a
similar result in the SABA Spring League.
Unfortunately the “Miner’s” first match on
their crusade was lost away to La Siesta
“Hornets”. Their 2nd match of the season,
again away, was against Greenlands
“Lightnings”. Now the fact that they were
playing on Friday 13th wouldn’t have held much
credence as an excuse should they have lost,
but I dare say someone might have been
willing to give it a try. Fortunately Mazarrón
“Miners” didn’t need any excuses as
they won 4 rinks to 2 and 121 shots to 78.
Well done to all players; it was a good win.
The next match will be on Mon 23rd April at
home against Vistabella B.
The Clubs Spring Triples League is already
more than half way through and apart from
team “Rich Birds” who have held the top spot
for three weeks, the rest are shuffling around
like a Paul Daniels pack of cards. Can “Rich
Birds” keep their top post this week after
playing the 2nd position team “Mac Pack” their
next opponents? It will be tough, as will the
match be for team “Bowled Over”, trying to
cling to their 3rd position. Watch this space!
If you would like to come along and give bowls
a try, we have sets of bowls you can borrow
and fully qualified coaches who will give any
tuition required, or if you have been a bowler
and thinking about playing again we would
make all very welcome.

Parkinson Trophy Competition
Mar Menor Golf Society held their March
2012 Parkinson Trophy Competition at
their Mar Menor village (ex-Polaris world)

in their tails, as they embark into this

and glorious sunny weather.
Girl Power has also returned to the Mar Menor
Golf Society, as the Overall Winner, Jane
Armstrong, is the first lady winner of a trophy
since Carol Cockeram won in August 2011.
Runner–up was awarded to Clive Coles. The
Armstrong’s were also determined to keep
the prize money in the family, as 3 rd place
went to Mike Armstrong with 4 th position to
John Sell.

The weather during this competition was
sunny with strong March winds, however
good scores were recorded. The beautiful
spring weather is providing an added booster
to the players, resulting in the return of girl
power in the previous Parkinson Trophy and
in this competition senior power went to
the forefront, as the Overall Competition
Winner was Keith Ellis at the grand age of
74 years. Keith was chased to the final hole
by Steve Cockeram, who was unable to
rein in Keith, even after having a run of 3
pars and 1 birdie on the back nine and had
to settle for the Runner-up position. 3 rd
place was awarded to George Fidler, with
Frank Doran who is on a vacation trip from
his home in Ireland achieving 4th position
and 5th position going to Brian Penny
The next trophy competition, the Davison
Trophy was held on April 11th
