Sunday, August 26 the numbers were slightly down due to patchy rain so only two games were played.
Mick Wholohan skipped for Peter Kearney and Tim Breen to defeat Peter Kearney (double lead), Gloria Clarke and Les Barnes 11+7. Being 10 all at one stage, the last five ends were dominated by Micks team to go and win.
The other game, between Don Kenniff and Cheryl Wotton, and Col Wotton and Sue Metcalfe was extremely close throughout, finishing at 16 shots all, a draw after 21 ends.
With the prospect of fine weather to come we look forward to our bowls next week.
Remember new starters are welcome no matter the age.
