Our successful Mairangi Bay Pearls women’s 7’s Interclub team are competing in the National Interclub 7’s in Wellington over the next three days.

The team is, as seen below after successfully winning the North Harbour 7’s, back to back.

Singles – Theresa Rogers.

Pairs – Elaine McClintock and Kerin Roberts.

Fours –  Sheryl Wellington, Jan Gledhill, Colleen Rice and Julie Chhour.

They head to Wellington on Thursday and play 5 rounds of qualifying on Friday and Saturday and hopefully a quarter final on Saturday and a semi-final and final on Sunday.

They play Burnside, Kerikeri, Stoke, Foxton and Beach and Kamo in their section. Some very strong sides particularly, Stoke, Burnside and Kamo.

The Pearls made the quarter finals last year, just going down to Invercargill.

Let’s hope they can put in another top performance this weekend.

The event is being televised but the actual games have yet to be selected.

Go to the Bowls New Zealand website for details under broadcast.

The weather forecast is not great for Wellington, so there is a number of plans in place to deal with the weather.

Go the PEARLS!!!!!
