Close Win and Loss!

Firstly Happy New Year!  Hope 2026 aes you stay warm, healthy and with more stunning bowls than the other sort!

Last night Steve G, Kevin K, Andy H & Peter Twells took on an Egham Four in the London & Southern Counties Single Rink competition.
Our lads shot off from the Starting block with great speed and were 6+ shots ahead. They kept Egham from entering the lead until the final few ends. They were 11-15 down with 3 ends to go. They picked up a single on a measure. Steve manages to kill two ends giving the team another attempt at crossing the 18th end first. They were 12-15 down but holding the 3 to force an extra end. Mark S played  the best shot a skip could for under pressure and held 3rd bowl. Steve took his time on the mat and played a brilliant yard-on shot removing Mark’s bowl from the rink as well as his own bowl. Mark held his nerve and put his final bowl into third and our chaps went out 14-15. Great game!

Today, Kevin and Peter T were back in action at CP in the mixed friendly v Teddington.
It finished 2-1 to CP with Andy K, Gym B & Tony O’B taking the top rink spot. Well done to Jonathan H playing for his outdoor Club and taking their top rink spot

Well played to everyone who contributed to the afternoon.

Leagues start again on Monday and we have another mixed friendly v Masonians next Saturday afternoon and another v Chertsey on Sunday afternoon

A Good Afternoon

Well done to everyone who played in the Mixed Friendly v our friends from Bishop Duppas. Not all of the BD team play indoors, so we did have a bit of advantage which helped us secure a win.
Well done to Chris P, Malcolm P, Bob & Dawn who sneaked into top rink position!

Many thanks to John Quirke for managing the bar all afternoon and to Alasdair for “topping and tailing” before and after playing.
