The Club put on a demo game of petanque at the launch of Learmonth Cider on Sunday 29th November.  It was a great day and many thanks to Club members Mike Croome and Linda Davey for organising it.

​The Cidery incorporates a very nice playing area that easily accommodates two pistes.

Two teams of three played off. Jeff (subbing for Gerry), Michel and Phil B beat Jack, John and Mike S in a very tight game (in the end!). Mike C and Linda provided some very entertaining and informative commentary to the enthralled audience.  Afterwards a number of games ensued.

Lots of great Cider and food was consumed. The weather was kind. Thanks to everyone.  Thanks too to Phil Cormie the inspiration behind the new Cidery at Learmonth

daThis year we weren't able to conduct our annual Morisset Cup Open Triples tournament.  However we were able to invite some players from local regional clubs to come and play a pop up game on the Saturday 31st Oct.  We had representatives from four clubs - Smythesdale, Ballarat, Grampians and Woodend.  Some pics follow. The wining club was Grampians!
