Welcome to

V.R.I. Bowls on line. 

  VRI Bowls Club - Moama Trip
   August 9 & 10, 2008.

 

President's Message:

Congratulations to our Teams who played in the annual VRI v API game at Ballarat in November.

We fielded 8 rinks - a great effort - and whilst we were successful before lunch, the API again showed their
superiority after the great lunch, running away with a win of 20 shots overall.

Photos from this event will be loaded above soon, keep looking for them!

Our next game, is the retired railwaymen's event on November 19, looking forward to seeing many members there.

Planning is well underway for the future events of the Club - both within Victoria, and with our Interstate rivals, in 2009 & 2010 - more details in the coming pages.

If you are interested in becoming a member, or playing with our group, please contact Secretary Bob, and he will tell you how this can be done.

I look forward to continuing get togethers and playing bowls, in a social and friendly atmosphere - what our Club is world famous for!

Best wishes for the Pennant Season to all members.    

Leo McNamara, President.

 

 

History:

The VRI Bowls Club is a Social Bowls Club.  It was formed in 1948, to allow Railway Men to have a social and competitive outlet in Lawn Bowls.

The Club has grown in size over the years, and currently has over 115 members, is open to Ladies and Men Members of the VRI Inc. 

The Club has numerous events during the year, but does not have a Clubhouse or Green of it's own.  Rather, we hire out the facilities of a host Club, and play games during the year.

Most recently, we have entered our Summer season on bowls, with games in Ballarat, coming up in Port Melbourne and at Princes Park before Christmas.  After Christmas, there is the Annual PUT tournament, and our Bi-Ennial Club Championship matches, running into Winter 2009.

More details of the Club's history and events are on the following pages.  If you have any questions regarding the Club and its events, please let us know.
