Brampton Bowls Club

Well done to everyone that played in our club mixed pairs yesterday. Winners were G.Moscrop & D.Smith with the runners up B.Foster & L.Lewis. A great afternoon and nice to see some of our newer members playing as well.

Today..Sunday our Green was host to the National ladies northern final.
Tina Smitham of Workington BC played Beverley Ware of Whitley & Monkseaton B.C. There were some great bowls and both players had some brilliant shots. Tina was the winner and we wish her well in the next area final but also well done to Beverley. Also thanks to Angela from Wigton who scored the game.
All 3 ladies commented on how good our Green is and asked me to thank our Green keepers Nigel & Colin for all their hard work.

Good luck to Nigel and Pam playing in the semi final of the County Mixed Pairs tonight. It’s at Wigton BC at 6.30pm for anyone wishing to go and support them.

Thanks to everyone that came to the coffee morning last Saturday.
Hope did the 100 club draw with the winners as follows….
1st. L. Dodd
2nd L&J Kelly
3rd A,E & T. Percival
4th L. Lewis
Well done to them
President Nigel made some calendar reminders…list is up for Kirkbride friendly & also for the Bbq. Mixed pairs start at 1.00pm next Saturday 18th July.

Many thanks to our members who chose to support the Friendly at Wetheral on Sunday. We were on the wrong end of the result, but enjoyed good company, a good green, and excellent food. These games are not really about winning, although we all like to, but more about making new friends, and renewing old acquaintances. These games are important to the Club, as they give members a relaxed introduction to competitive play, and might encourage them to play in Club competitions and League Matches, and I would encourage all members to support them.

We have a busy weekend coming up, with the Club Mixed Pairs commencing at 1 pm on Saturday, on Sunday we travel to Kirkbride Bowling Club for our Friendly. If you are available to play, and don't have your names down yet, please do so.

Well done to Nigel and Pam for winning against Alan and Audrey from Silloth in the County mixed pairs competition. They now go onto play in the semi final..venue to be confirmed.

Thanks to everyone that played and helped at our Open Triples competition yesterday. It was a great day and only spoilt by the rain during the last filling.

Runners up in the 2nd filling were Linda Lewis,G. Strong & G.Moscrop from Brampton.

Well done to everyone that’s played in the heat this week….a change from playing in the rain …but seriously hope no one felt ill during or after a game. We want to enjoy playing but not at the expense of our health.
We’ve had a friendly at home to Longtown today and a nice breeze making it more comfortable to play.
