Ladies bowls: ‘much awaited decision’
There was not much action last week as there is still not a result from the pennant against Young Yellow with a countback pending. The result was coming through on Monday. Either way, congratulations must go to all the lady players who played this year as, being a small club, we have participated extremely well and should be proud to have achieved running in equal first place.
Joan Clark, Kelly Daley and Chris Hancock will be travelling to Stockinbingal this Saturday for the president’s day. Enjoy your day and hopefully you will come home with a prize.
