PRESENTATION NIGHT 2017 – Doncaster Bowling Club
29 April, 2017
Presentation night was the culmination of a wonderful 2016-17 Saturday Pennant season.
Again the fourth side was lauded and cheered. Their banner, their pennant, their medals and the new photo for the wall were displayed. Their new individual photos which Bob Urquhart had made were proudly distributed.
Then the first side handed their pennant to the Chairman Garry Beckett who acknowledged their promotion to division two, with the reminder that now Doncaster is qualified to have teams in Divisions 2,3,4,5 and 7 for the next season.
It was a full day for many. Voting for the selection committee in the morning, a social game in the afternoon, and dinner in the evening.
Super Veterans badges were presented to Joe Agius, Reg Broad, Morrie Keifel, John McPhee and Gerda van der Peet. Gerda’s profile and achievements were many and varied and she still is a champion…..read on.

Thanks to those who set up the tables—they did look smart. Thanks to Bob Urquhart for compiling 300 plus photos of the years activities in a rolling display on the TV for everyone to watch during the night.
Doncaster has had a great year. As Geoff Bandy says loudly, enthusiastically and often “GO DONCASTER!”………. Lyn Goodman.
