October 26th, 2015

29/10/2015

 
Lifeball continues on its merry way, although with fewer players however.  But that's OK, playing within 2 zones instead of 3 sharpens us up greatly, and is even more fun than usual.

Marg is still not playing, although she is umpiring, which involves just moving along the side of the court.  She hopes to resume playing next month.  Anne has also resumed after being in Austria visiting family for some weeks, and she is a welcome addition.  Jan and Dick have been away for some months, but we do hope to see them again soon.  Gerry has brought both his grandchildren along on occasions, and young Jackson caught on really quickly, at 8 years of age.  Even tiny Tasmin, at 3, was hopping into Rupert's exercise program with great enthusiasm, and it was lovely to watch.

Our times have changed now - everyone is encouraged to arrive at 9.45, ready to play at 10am on Mondays, before the temperature rises too quickly.

Our breakup lunch will be on December 8 this year, at the Golf Club, and if it is anything like last year, will be a wonderful way to conclude our year's program.  

We will resume next year on February 1, beginning at 10 am.

Give us a try - you won't regret it!!

    About Lifeball

    Missing team sports?  Looking for a different way to keep fit?  Lifeball might be what you're looking for.  It's a game adapted from basketball which suits all ages and abilities, and is great for balance and coordination - no experience necessary!  We're a competitive group who get plenty of laughs from playing, and always finish up with a cuppa and a discussion of the finer points of the game.  There is a small weekly game fee.  New players are always welcome to drop in and see us in action. .

    Starts in March
