Getting together at the Eagles Hall, the Toolshed Triples hosted the River Benders. Both teams were short players, but the home team Triples secured the league spare, Harry Ross, to bring their roster up to five. The River Benders solved their problem by added a new member to the team, welcome Brad Uytterhagen! Leading the wins for the Triples, Jim Hood, pulled in four wins in six games. Topping the Triples scores, Tom Rodgers hit a 109. The River Benders’ captain, Jim Thompson, and Rod Swindells, were both unbeatable on Tuesday night. Newbie Brad hit a 140 and 121, and Rod also hit a 140 and 116, to share the top scores for the team.
Final score Toolshed Triples – 9, River Benders – 24

The Cascadia Bristle Bashers welcomed the Qualicum Beach Legion Short-Sighted Crew to the Parksville Legion on Tuesday night. As the only two teams at the venue, this meant no other teams were witness to the carnage.

Leading the wins for the Bashers, Steve Collins was undefeated in his five games, and shared top score of 140 with Basher Terry Strawson, who also shot 135 and 100 times five. Leading the wins for the Crew, Peter Bisiker plucked three wins from the opponents, as well as topped the scores with a 125, 118 and 101.
Final score Cascadia Bristle Bashers – 26, Short-Sighted Crew – 7

The Arrows took the lead early and the Eagle Eyes couldn’t muster up a comeback. Leading the wins for the Arrows was a three-way tie with four wins in five matches for John Curtis, Mike Beno and Poul Reimer. Mike Beno topped the team scores with a 133, and Poul brought the hall to a standstill when he hit his first 180 of the season. Thanks to Harry Vanheerwaarden for hollering for a photo so it could be shared on the website.
