Dear Members
I must tell you what a brilliant morning we have had at our Bowls Club. It was good to see so many arrive for the regular Saturday morning roll up, including several of our newer members. I hope you all enjoyed yourselves.
Following a first round bye, the ladies were playing Folkestone in the second round of the National Yetton Trophy. Briefly, on the home green, Brenda Bennett’s rink won by
17-15 and Ann Welch’s rink lost 16-21.
The overall score had been close all morning but the two rinks playing at Folkestone were quite a way behind so it was a nervous wait for the final score to come through. In the meantime, in the event of a tie, Ann Welch’s rink played an extra end which Sevenoaks won thanks to a superb shot from Ann.
Some 20 minutes later, the phone call came through from Folkestone. An 18-18 draw for Sue Wallis and her ladies, and a magnificent 24-15 win from Ann Munro’s rink secured a very unexpected overall victory for Sevenoaks 75-69.
Next Saturday morning, in addition to the usual roll up, the men will be playing against Ashford IBC A team in the Dudley Hoile Competition – why not come along and either play or watch.
