    The Albany Bowling Club will be represented by Billy Krige and Marlene Jacobs at the Eastern Province Mixed Pairs finals in Port Elizabeth last weekend.

    The Albany Bowling Club will be represented by Billy Krige and Marlene Jacobs at the Eastern Province Mixed Pairs finals in Port Elizabeth last weekend.

    The Albany pair won Section 2, thus automatically qualifying for the finals. Rob Croly and Bryony Shone of Kenton Bowling Club won Section 1 and were crowned overall Eastern Areas champions, finishing with six points.

    Krige and Jacobs finished as runners-up with four points.

    The Eastern Areas mixed pairs started on 7 and 8 January with a total of 24 teams making up Section 1 and 2. 

    Section 1 was played at Grahamstown Bowling Club, while Section 2 was played just up the road at Albany Bowling Club. Teams taking part represented the Eastern Areas Bowling Clubs, Grahamstown, Albany, Port Alfred, Kowie and Kenton. 

    After playing three rounds each, the winning pairs in each group moved on to the play-offs, which took place last weekend.

    The Section 1 winners faced the Section 2 winners to determine the overall Eastern Areas champions. 

    Krige and Jacobs and Croly and Shone will now face the top two teams from the various regions in EP. This will determine the overall EP champions.  

    The EP Mixed Pairs Championship takes place at the Westview Bowling Club in Port Elizabeth on 21 and 22 January.

    Section runners-up in the weekend’s play-offs were Malcolm Grant and Mary Tarr (Section 1) of Grahamstown BC and Clive Bartlett and Gwen Bartlett (Section 2) of Albany BC.

    Grahamstown BC will host the first round of the Eastern Areas Men’s 1 and 2 League on Sunday 5 February.

    Albany host the first local club competition of the year, the GBS Mixed Fours on Saturday 11 February, before hosting round 2 of the EA league the following day.
