A double success for the mixed friendlies last weekend. Well done everyone who played. Great stuff!

Unfortunately, neither King George Field nor London Civil Service can field a team this weekend which is a real shame.

On a positive note that means there are plenty of rink sessions up to be booked for club competitions at sociable weekend times. Hooray!

Next BIG match is the Ladies v Gents on Sunday 16th February at 2:00. Quite a few names down but we need 16 on each team.
After that, we play Teddington at Triples on 23rd February.
There’s a pen hanging on the board, so please sign up!

Take some time out from Saturday morning chores and come along to watch.
Mixed friendlies this afternoon v Ladygate as well as tomorrow at 2:00

Watch the potential Jason Banks, Robert Paxton,  Julie Rogers and Beth Piva of the future!

At 10:00, Hampshire take on Kent again in the National Under 18’s Triples. The players would love to have some spectators and supporters!
Please come along to watch.
If anyone can help serving teas/coffees pre-match and/or during the match, please let Alasdair and Kevin K know.
Thanks

The rinks are getting busy with all the club comp deadlines approaching.
There are some very competitive bowlers out there and we could so with a few more of you – maybe 3? – for Saturday’s match v Ladygate at Home starting at 2:00.  None of us are at the standard of Jason Banks, but we can all give it our best shot inspired by his play last week!

Kevin is also looking for a few more players for the Friendly v King George Field on 8th and London Civil Service on 9th.

Please sign up at the club or contact Kevin Keown if you are able to play especially for this Saturday’s match.
The matches will be fun, friendly and competitive in equal measure!

Thanks

Thanks to David H for the latest results.
Are we all trying to play like Jason Banks from now on?!  Fantastic World Championships for him – all three titles!

All down to the last two players.
Robert Paxton played a fantastic final bowl to secure his place. Watch on the FB page.
Jason Banks. Wow, what a fortnight he’s had!

Good luck to both players. Those playing at Camberley this afternoon will have to wait to watch on BBC iPlayer tonight!

This morning is the Potters Champion of Champions Final. Fantastic achievement to get there. Not sure if it will be screened on YouTube.

Lots of matches today with semi finals of the Men’s Championships as well the Masters.

On Sunday afternoon, we play Camberley away in a friendly. We had a good match against them last time and Kevin K is hoping his team get a win!

Players need to be at Camberley by 1:45

At 10:00 on Saturday 25th we take on Glebelands in the next Middlesex League match with two rinks at home and two away.
We’re hoping to improve on our 2-2 draw v Century last week.
Supporters and spectators taking time to be out of the wind and rain are welcome at both venues.

With Julie Forrest taking the women’s title over Beth Riva, It’s now down to the final few days with the men taking the stage. Jason Banks is having a really good week and hoping to add singles to his tournament wins. He’ll have to until tonight to play former champion Paul Foster though.
