1st day of my official try-out

They said I had a "good, natural delivery" and loved the fact that I came dressed in khaki's, even though "white's" are preferred.  But, at least they encouraged me to become a member and play for the local team.  Next practice, this coming Wednesday morning - 9:00 am sharp.

It probably helped that I teamed up with the club's president on my first day of pick-up games - and luckily Daniel showed me some of his subtle, wily tricks.  We won our first "ends", 6 - 3.

The nationals will be played here in a few short years  - when Sarasota will be hosting the national, 2016 U. S. Open Lawn Bowling Championship.
