Halswell<br />
take lead<br />
in cricket<br />
HALSWELL WILL take a 45-run<br />
lead into day two of their match<br />
against Southern Districts on<br />
Saturday.<br />
Day one of the match, which<br />
was played at Halswell Domain on<br />
Saturday, saw Southern put in to bat<br />
first after Halswell won the toss.<br />
Halswell started well with the<br />
ball and had Southern 32/3 after<br />
17 overs before some good middle<br />
order partnerships saw Southern get<br />
to <strong>13</strong>5/6.<br />
However, bowler Geoff Barclay<br />
came back on to take late wickets,<br />
reducing Southern to 166/9 from<br />
their 50 overs. Barclay finished with<br />
figures of 5-39.<br />
Halswell were 30/2 after six overs<br />
before James Pearson joined opener<br />
Matt McClintock in the middle.<br />
These two batted well in a partnership<br />
worth 75 before Pearson was<br />
stumped for 39 off 30 balls and<br />
McClintock went out soon after for<br />
a patient 47.<br />
Leighton Johnston lifted the<br />
tempo with a nice 46 runs from 31<br />
balls.<br />
However, a collapse saw Halswell<br />
go from 170/4 to 214 all out from<br />
just 36 overs, leaving Southern 10<br />
minutes to bat until stumps. Johnston<br />
took a wicket on the last ball of<br />
the day to have Southern 3/1.<br />

FOR ALANA Dalzell, entering<br />
into the Ellesmere Women’s<br />
Open junior singles tournament<br />
was all about getting some<br />
bowls experience.<br />
The first-year bowler from<br />
Coalgate joined the Dunsandel<br />
Club where her father and<br />
brother play.<br />
Arriving at Akaroa on Saturday,<br />
she had not previously<br />
played a singles match but a loss<br />
in her first game was to be the<br />
only one of the day.<br />
Being up against players that<br />
have had four or five years’ experience<br />
never phased Dalzell as<br />
SPORTS<br />
INTO THE SURF: Springston School’s Ben Airey, in the<br />
green cap below, won the 10-year-old boys’ grade of the<br />
Canterbury Primary and Intermediate Schools Triathlon held<br />
recently at Pegasus. West Melton School’s Stacey Morgan<br />
(right) came second in the nine-year-old girls’ grade and<br />
Rolleston School’s Zoe McMeeken (far right) came second in<br />
the 11-year-old girls’ grade. PHOTOS: KATHRYN MEYERS<br />
New bowler makes strong start for Dunsandel<br />
she constantly kept drawing to<br />
the jack and making good shot<br />
decisions.<br />
With only three qualifiers out<br />
of the eight entrants, Sharheen<br />
Eaqub, who beat Dalzell 12-8 in<br />
round one, drew with Dalzell<br />
in the semi-final. But Dalzell<br />
played excellent draw bowls and<br />
Eaqub conceded an end short<br />
6-15.<br />
Effie Hallewell from the host<br />
club, Akaroa, had drawn the bye<br />
and waiting is never easy, but at<br />
four-all after five of <strong>13</strong> ends, the<br />
game was a great spectacle.<br />
Dalzell picked up a three<br />
on the sixth end to build<br />
confidence and won six of the<br />
remaining ends to win her<br />
first Ellesmere trophy, beating<br />
Hallewell 15-9.<br />
She won five games in a row<br />
on her way to winning the<br />
trophy and is a very talented<br />
bowler in the making.<br />
In the men’s junior singles,<br />
played at the Tai Tapu Club, the<br />
men also had only three qualifiers<br />
from the field of eight.<br />
Nick Alfeld from Lincoln<br />
drew the bye into the final,<br />
leaving Akaroa’s Don Walker to<br />
play Lincoln’s Colin Stevenson.<br />
Walker was too strong for Stevenson.<br />
In the final, Alfeld’s dedication<br />
to practice and coaching<br />
SELWYN TIMES<br />
showed his all-round strengths<br />
in the game and Walker conceded<br />
8-17 after <strong>13</strong> of the 15<br />
ends, making Alfeld this year’s<br />
junior champion.<br />
Ellesmere Cup’s final round<br />
saw the Lincoln 5 team,<br />
skipped by Lyndsey Withell,<br />
beat Lincoln 3 to win the ladies<br />
mid-week competition after<br />
dropping only one game out of<br />
the nine rounds.<br />
Withell was lucky to have a<br />
consistent team throughout the<br />
competition, only having to substitute<br />
twice. The team included<br />
Margie Watson, Bev Gregg,<br />
Eileen Bell and substitute Nancy<br />
Jessep.<br />
