20 teams of 3 players from a range of Clubs - including five teams from South Cliff - enjoyed a day of competitive bowling. Some players were very experienced, some were relatively new to this type of competition where teams play 4 matches - each one lasting 40 minutes - with the outcome being decided on points scored and shots difference - if points were equal. With one match to play, three teams from Seamer and Pete B’s team from South Cliff were on maximum points. The final round of matches saw Margaret H’s Seamer team secure victory with a maximum 8 points. Second place went to Seamer’s Peter L on 7 points and third place to a another Seamer trio - Dave B’s team on 6 points with a superior shot difference from 4th place Jan S’s team from York Railway Institute.

Despite several short showers, play continued throughout the day and the competitors and supporters availed themselves of some excellent food provided by club members and thanks go to James and his helpers for making this happen. A very successful raffle with prizes donated by club members added to the event and thanks go to the green team especially John S. It was gratifying to receive some very positive comments about the quality of the Green, given the protracted lack of rainfall. Many thanks to all members who helped in this event and to Joyce for keeping the score and above all to Pauline T for organising this very successful event.
