Farnborough had an 100% success in the Farnham and District Finals Yesterday winning all 4 finals. Michael and Stuart in the Men’s Pairs. Sheila and Rachel in the Ladies Pairs. Rachel in the Ladies’ Singles and Paul Sainsbury, Stuart Markham, Edna , Martin Lee, Graham and Rachel in the Ken Britton. Well done all. The club is very proud of you.
Saturday 28th August was an all Farnborough Final in the Aldershot and District Triples.
Tim, Scott and Terry taking on Martin, Stuart and Michael.
The game was very close, Scott playing some great shots to give their team a lead. The game then got tighter with Martin’s team winning enough ends to give then a 4 shot lead going into the final end. This proved just too much of a challenge for Scott and his team. Well done Martin, Stuart and Michael and commiserations to Terry, Tim and Scott.
Presidents’ Day yesterday. 42 bowlers and 10 others enjoying a spoon drive followed by a buffet tea. Allan Paice winning the Spoon drive and a three way tie for second between Molly, Alec Sharman and Claire Hildreth. A big thanks to all who helped organise and all bowlers for supporting the club and our Charity.
Cindy, Rachel and Sheila had a convincing 21-5 win over a strong Alton Social Side on Friday 20th August. They play the final against Oakley on Monday 6th September at Howard Park. Very well done ladies.
Saturday saw 16 pairs compete in the Aussie Pairs in gorgeous weather
The format was 4 sections of 4 Pairs with the winner being the pair with the highest shot difference across all 16 team.
This was necessary to be able to fit into an afternoon and give everyone 3 games.
The eventual winners, somewhat added by a hot shot in game 2, were Stuart and Chrissie.
We are also very grateful to Cindy and Barbara on their demonstration on how best to hold a pusher
Many thanks for supporting today’s competition, especially to those who stepped in late to ensure we had 10 full triple teams. Despite a large black cloud about noon that din’t produce any rain, the weather was warm and dry.
A couple of bowlers were taking part in their first competition – I hope you enjoyed it and will enter many more.
Well done to the runners-up Chris O’Reilly, Alan Cook and Tim Nixon
Congratulations to the winners Graham Thomas, Mike Kernahan and Allan Paice
