Nearly through the terrestrial television coverage on BBC2. Just one more day to wait.
However for those of you who have he wherewithal, live streaming plus catch up is available on the Ambassador Cruises World Bowls YouTube channel.
Another mixed friendly , this time against our friends from London Welsh. (Hope Luigi is in good voice to serenade us after the meal!)
Good luck to everyone playing.
match starts at 2:00 for those wishing to come in from the cold for an hour or so to have a drink and watch.
Our Middlesex League match v Century and although it was 2-2 all in rinks, unfortunately we didn’t score more points overall so went down by 2-6 (4 points for overall win)
Top rink was Barry, Bob, Kevin & Teresa closely followed by Peter J, Jacqui, Dawn & Peter T who went into the final end 23-23 and managed to score 2!
Tomorrow morning, the Peter’s take on two of the Century chaps in the National Pairs at 10:00 Good luck!
Next Saturday we play Glebelands. Two rinks home, two away starting at 10:00
I gather from a couple of you last night that yesterday’s matches were better. Maybe it’s because players have settled into the rink now.
Today’s play includes mixed pairs and I believe it’s Lucy Smith’s first appearance.
Lucy’s family have been heavily involved in the Open Singles Circuit before passing the organisation over to EIBA. Lucy and her sister won both the EIBA National Pairs as well as the Bowls England National Pairs in the same year. Quite an achievement!
Thanks to David H for waving his magic wand and producing the latest league tables.
Didn’t see any games yesterday!
Here’s today’s schedule
The Ambassador Cruises 2025 World Championships are under way at Potters. Hooray!

The final week of the Championships start on BBC2 on Monday 20th.
The schedule and other details can be found on pottersresorts.com
Some great matches today
The Doubler/Salmon pair put out Nick Brett & Greg Harlow and then another pair yesterday to put themselves into the semi final They played brilliantly on Sunday , It’s 2-bowl pairs so players have to concentrate very hard and make every bowl count!
Good luck to everyone playing this afternoon starting at 2:00
There should be a lot of fun with our friends from Chertsey.
Bring an extra layer of clothes. Club heating is on but it’s still a bit chilly if you’re doing a lot standing.
Play well!
The phones/WhatsApp/texts are hot this week and the rinks are getting booked, which will make Comp Sec Stella very happy!
However, if you’ve just remembered or checked and find you have a match to play by Friday, please contact your opponent(s) asap!
Thanks
