Sevenoaks IBC v Stone Lodge IBC. Ladies (F). Wednesday 3rd April 2024

DARTFORD STONE LODGE 2 1/2 SEVENOAKS 2 1/2
80 shots to 69
Although DSL had withdrawn from the Kent League, they were keen to play a 5 triples ladies friendly game with Sevenoaks so off we tootled up the M25 (at least some of us did) keen to admire the view of pylons and the spectacular  Dartford Bridge Crossing before arriving at DSL.
On arrival we discovered there must have been a misunderstanding, or DSL were seriously lacking in lady players, as several gentlemen were making up the numbers in their team,   However, we came for a game, and an enjoyable game we had, winning on two rinks, drawing on one and losing on two, with overall shots victory going to DSL 80-69.
Captain Joyce Allen, Avril Moss and Ann Munro led 13-7 and hung on for a narrow 13-12  win.   Cynthia Gaston, Eve Strudwick and Brenda Bennett had an excellent first half to lead 16-7 but the midway cup of tea inspired the opposition and in the end Sevenoaks were grateful to scrape home 20-19.   With 5 shots scored on the last two ends, Veronica Hunt, Kristina Williams and Mel Bridges snatched a 14-14 draw.
