ACBC/Bendigo Bank Classic Fours 2025

The 2025 Robert Puffa Sawyer Memorial Classic 4s tournament was held at ACBC on Sunday 2nd February.


This was the first time that the tournament was named  in honour of club life-member  Puffa Sawyer who , alongside his son Steve , was part of the winning team in 2024.


A full compliment of 32 teams from around the state turned up to battle it out- a fantastic turn out considering that the forecast was for a high of 38C, echoing the hot conditions that were experienced last year.


The temperature climbed into the low 30s before midday. A blustery breeze helped to make the pre-lunch conditions comfortable but also challenging.


3 games of 10 ends were played with the last game testing many players due to the heat. There were 5 teams that won all 3 games from their section. A team from the Essendon Bowls Club won the tournament with a strong finish in the last game. Congratulations to Ky Shennan (L), Steven Shennan (S), Ryan Kearns (T) and Micheal Stevenson (Skip).


In summary: both the greens were rolling well, the egg and bacon rolls were a hit, the outside bar was very welcome , the games were played in a good spirit despite the testing conditions , and the delicious lunch and refreshing afternoon tea ,provided by club members Sophie and Kelly, made for a great day.  

 

Thank you to all the helpers who make the Classic 4s happen , and all the bowlers who support this tournament.
