BOWLS Report 15/12/24

MIDWEEK PENNANT

After two weeks of washouts we finally travelled to Rich River for our match last Tuesday.

Helen Emery’s rink had a slow start against A Linquists team with many good shots played but not being able to hold them, going down by 13 shots.

Leanne Busch’s team came home with the chocolates against L Sharps rink with a close match all day, they picked up a great 4 on the 20th end to open the lead to 6 shots. Rich River collected a 3 on the last but it wasn’t enough for the win.

 Valley View  winning by 3 shots. Well done.

Bev Lyon had a real tussle with R Thomas’s rink. Not having an ideal start and being well down after 13 ends, the team fought back well only going down by 8 shots.

The overall result was 67 to 49 going down by 18 shots but improving on our first encounter by 15 shots. Well done ladies, Ken and Chalky.
