Unfortunately, while we were able to retain the trophy last year, the annual match against the West Brighton Club had to be abandoned due to cold and wet weather. We are hoping to reschedule for some time early in 2025.
We normally play against Scotch, Carey and Melbourne Grammar during the season. At the APS tournament day in March 2025, we compete against bowlers from Scotch, Xavier, Haileybury, Carey, Melbourne Grammar, St Kevins and Caulfield Grammar. All games commence at 11am and conclude at 2pm with a break at 12.30pm for lunch. The only exception is the West Brighton game that commences at 1pm.
For the APS tournament day and competition throughout the season, we accept bowlers who are Old Wesley Collegians or relatives of OWs such as parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. The OWCA supplies bowlers with a bowls top and the rest of the uniform is owner supplied. I can purchase Wesley caps or bucket hats for those bowlers who require them (at cost).
If you would like to join us for future games, please contact me on 0403 023 288. We are always looking for new blood to boost up the ranks as we are not getting any younger.
