A big week and week-end for Prospect Petanquers. We started on Wednesday with a great meal from our Wednesday night cooks, we had a steak sandwich/roll and a lovely cup of homemade vegetable soup. Just what we needed on a very cold and wet night where no pétanque was played but a great night to catch up with friends. So a big thank you to Brett for the soup and Marty and Micheal for the steak sandwich/roll.
Saturday, saw our monthly Saturday competition run with 30 players participating over the two games. Richard V and Roberta scored 24 points and only one member finished with a perfect score of 26 and the winner was Heike taking home the winnings of $60.00. Who now with the other previous winners has a handicap of 1 point. Congratulations Heike and see everyone for the Saturday competition on the 18th July. The competition was followed by a big cup of soup and warm bread that was made by Brett. Just the treat on another cold winter day.
Sunday, the State Triples were held at ESP, this year was the first year in 15 years that a female competition was held and we had our first PPC ladies team enter. This competition was delayed in March due to potential inclement weather where they predicted 80mls of rain and thunder and lightening, which did not eventuate but better to be safe than sorry. Originally we were going to have three teams but unfortunately with the change of date, members were now travelling and on holidays but we still had one team with a newbie to the competitive world of Lonie, plus Val and Sophie. We could hear laughs and cheers from both sides when competing , when great shots were played.
The open section saw four Prospect teams, Richard V, Yvonne & Maureen, Janet, Micheal and Ben, Heike, John and Phil and Richard H, Kym and David C. Final results were not available at the time of this post, but all teams had mixed results. But you have to be in it to win it.
Results we do know were:
The Women’s final results
Haejung & Deb Rodda, Anna
Tina,Rada & Deb Coleman
The Open final results:
Van, Ha & Nathan
Ray, Dominic & Craig.
The Open Convivial was won by Greg, Rob & Ralph.
See you Wednesday I believe it will be cool but no rain predicted this week.

Mixed triples comp was held at Club de Petanque Adelaide on Sunday 14th June which saw Ha, Van and Nathan (ESP) take top spot, defeating PPC's Heike, John and Phil in the final.
Sandy (CPA), Maureen (PPC) & Bruce (CPA) prevailed in the Consolante over Karen, Richard and Fran CPA.
Dry and sunny conditions kept up all day though there’s definitely a chill in the air.
Another delicious lunch was served to particpants, well done CPA members Rada and Claudia, big shout to CPA's Adrian, Phil, Rob and JP, for organising games and raffle, and to all the helpers who set up and cleared up!

Next competition - the Prestige Cup - sponsored by our long running partners Prestige Trophy, Badge & Engraving! Should be a great day - look forward to seeing you all there!
Another cold, but not wet or windy Wednesday night at the club , there were around 27 brave people who came along and enjoyed a few games as well as a Chicken Schnitzel Burger with Coleslaw and Cheese. A nice thing to warm you up on a cold night.
Thanks to the cooks and clean-up crew. See you Saturday.

Well we had a cool night for the last round of the Super Melee for PPC. This week in Adelaide we have had an unusual amount of wet weather, which we welcomed but makes it trickier to get in a good game of pétanque.
Last night we were fortunate to get in two games even if it was on the cool side and only a shower at the end, we still had 40 people attend to be part of this competition.
To warm everyone up Wendy our chef prepared a lovely delicious Irish Stew with Dumplings, with a choice of beef, lamb or vegetarian. Followed by a serve of Chocolate self-saucing pudding with Ice Cream. Yum Thank you Wendy, we hope that Wendy and Alan have a great trip away see you when you get back.
The new quarter starts in July and the winners for the last 3 months will be announced.
Thanks to everyone who assisted with the Bar and clean-up.
The club will be open on Saturday from 2.00, rain hail or shine!
