Blairgowrie

Wet weather put paid to the usual Friday night rinks competition last week.

They will go on to play Rattray’s Mackenzie-Petrie on August 28.

Saturday this week sees the club host its ladies invitation pairs competition, which attracts teams from across Perthshire. Spectators are welcome.

The away friendly planned against Luncarty on Sunday this week has been cancelled as the hosts’ facilities have not been completed.

The weekly club lottery now stands at £350.

There were no winners last week. The numbers were 6, 7, 16 and 17.
