Inter County Match against West Barns 2011 - Team Profile
 |
Known for his meticulous and methodical approach on the green, The Machine will be hoping that wife Angela packs his daily supply of bananas for the trip south. Will be appearing for the first time in his career on a bowling green wearing a collared shirt (ironed).

The Hacker - aptly named due to his scything tight raking shots - never been known to hit the target yet. Hopefully his drawing is far less reckless at West Barns. If the truth be told, he's only in the pairs to teach his skip how to draw. Reached his peak now, no titles since 2008!

Often claims to be the SECOND best player to hail from the mighty Insch Bowling Club - although Graham Alexander will have something to say about that. Will need to put his raking ability to full use at West Barns - to chap all the Hackers short stuff up. 15th of May will probably be The Analysts hardest days work in a long time - a good excuse for another Monday off!

If Willie Wood thought he'd seen firing at the Commonwealth Games from Phil Skoglund, then wait til he see's The Hammer! Mind you Andrew will probably not be unleashing his famous weapon too often as he's playing at lead. Wait a minute - its never stopped him before!
|
 |
The Silver Phox - quite simply one of the North Easts most respected bowlers and a true Inverurie Bowling Club legend. Try to outwit The Phox in a tactical battle at your peril, this man will grind you into submission. Nae bad at dancing as well!

DO NOT MESS WITH THE BULL!! He is massive - and will not think twice about taking you by the scruff of the neck and pinning you against the wall at Garioch Indoor! He can bowl a bit as well, and possesses a deadly powerful drive - which has also been passed on to his not so accurate son, The Hammer.

As you can see from the photo, this is the Inverurie Bowling Club baby of the team. Ice Man has won nearly everything there is to win indoor already - and he's not even 16 yet! Big J wouldn't say boo to a Goose, mind you, he'd never get near him on the green anyway! What a cute wee lad - hope he doesn't turn out like The Machine!!

The Planner is a relative new comer to outdoor bowling, having switched from the all action sport of Marbles. Unfortunately, he's still using the same size of balls. What a wifie! Hopefully the rinks will have an easy win as the West Barns lads will be too busy laughing at the size of Brucie's bools!

The Mallet is Inverurie Bowling Clubs import from the Northern Counties. After several large red wines, he will gladly tell you all about the numerous times he was been crowned Northern Counties Singles Champion. Every team needs an OAP - in Inverurie's case - Old Age Pin Up Boy!

Stinger is still recovering from a dreadful season last year, which saw his ranking plummet to a lowly 24. This is currently under review after his official complaint to the match committee was upheld - he has proposed his ranking should be promoted to at least 2 on the grounds of him reaching 57 semi finals in the past 5 seasons. Hopefully Stinger will achieve his first ever toucher at West Barns- it would be the highlight of his career

Inverurie Bowling Club is proud to have the worlds fastest bowler, Gale Force Gary as a member. His incredible vocabulary skills have rightly earned him this title for 27 years in a row now - his bowling delivery is rather fast as well. Should his services be called upon at West Barns, rest he assured he will give his all at yapping Wood, Kennedy et al off the green!
