The BSI Tournament Greenslade on August 12th-13th, 2025, was a highly anticipated event for the men’s Bowls South Island Tournament. A total of 20 teams participated in the two-day event held at Oak Bay, playing two games each day, resulting in four 16-end games. The first day, Tuesday, was extremely hot, which made bowling quite challenging, but everyone persevered. Fortunately, the following day was slightly cooler, making the play much more enjoyable. The games were highly competitive, and everyone had a great time.
A big thank you to all the volunteers, kitchen staff, greenskeeper, and those who rolled the greens. Special thanks to Gloria for the fabulous photography and to everyone else who contributed to the setup, takedown, and preparation for the tournament.
First place and the trophy went to Frank McKitrick and Don Pavan of Gordon Head. Second place went to Brent Jansen and Steve Foster. Third place went to David Gardner and Peter Smith.
