After a devastating 0-5 season Captain Clay’s Balls Out with stalwarts Jack, Gail & Rich, delivered an amazing performance to capture the win in their playoff game over Don’t Stop Ballieving. The Ballievers Jen, Carla and Brooke aided by Jim Woodcock substituting for the vacationing Captain Jill could not extend their winning streak from Game 5 into the playoffs, losing 12-5 to Balls Out. Congrats to Balls Out who managed their first and final win of our 2024 season and Condolences to the Ballievers who have earned the dreaded Wooden Spoon.

Our second and third games last Friday established the teams who will play for the 2024 Campbell Bocce League Championship. On Friday August 30^th we will open with a game between Captain Dianne’s Just Rolling Into It and Captain Karen’s Rollmasters, the winner earns the third place season title. The Championship game immediately follows dinner and Captain Kellys undefeated Ballbarians, Chris, Jim Woodcock and Scott will be playing Captain Travis’ Throwing Shade with Jim Leon, Bob and Gerda. It should be a blockbuster.
