Match Report
SW&Mon Tuesday June 9th
Away St Julian’s

Well, you ladies, have just gone and done it again! 😊😊Away to St Julian’s this afternoon: bright, breezy…no rain, no big temperatures!
From the, “oh no’s;” “she has done it again;” well she it’s not a dead end now!” that emanated from our other rink, I knew they were having “a cracking match!”
Quickly ahead: 13~2.
Yes, St J picked up 3 shots, and Chepstow carried on: 18~19,20! Chris Fletcher, sorted a potential “dead end.” Sandra O’Leary pulling in some sintilating shots! Both ably backed by Angela and Jan Bowen. Great score ladies! 20~13.
Play was frustrating for our other rink… Lynne G and Chrissy working the green, finding the lines. Then the St J’s skip comes in and does her job! Quickly 4~1 down. Changed tactics, sorted the skip: 7~4 ahead.
9 ends complete: 7~7… all to play for! We were “on it” with a super 3! However, St J’s niggled in and there we were: 13th end: 10~10… ugh! We all played our part, but the highlight was Meryl driving through ( when we were 2/3 down)… took both wood and Jack right, right back: grabbing the play! Yes!
It was a slow slog. We got there to take the game: 15~14.
What a team!

A Great Day of Bowling for the Chepstow ladies Panteg House Bowls club!
