Tonight we see another big match up in our World Cup sweepstake as we see the battle of the moustaches, when England (Paul O’Keefe) takes on the mighty Ghana (Alex Cromie), may the best tache win 🥸😂

With the World Cup in full flow now, today in our sweepstake we see 2 very well known faces in bowls locally and further afield face off against each other as Uruguay (Clifford Dennison) take on the mighty Cape Verde (Charlie Davis)

Great day hosting the NIBA team Vs The Irish team.

Last night we held a sweepstake in the club for the World Cup all for a bit of fun and raise a few quid for the club. The first game sees Big Phil (Mexico) take on Pete the Heat (South Africa)⚽️

Keep your eyes peeled for updates 👀

PS AI has somewhat flattered the 2 lads 😂
