The final event of the weekend was the Semi finals and final of the County Double Mixed fours competition. The semi finals saw Reading beat Shrivenham with the last bowl of the match and Suttons beating Hagbourne in the last end. The final was a very damp affair with almost constant rain. However, this did not dampen the standard or excitement of yet another last wood win by Reading over Suttons. Well done to all participants and spectators who braved the inclement weather.

The second event of the weekend was the drawn triples where we had 60 members playing down to two teams that qualified for the final. The two successful teams were Shakira Romain, Stan Hughesdon and Trevor Wright who will play Jane Bazley, Malvin Tull and Clive Thrower. As can be seen from the pictures a fine afternoon was enjoyed by all.

A very very busy weekend at the club saw the presentation of the prizes for the THP Sponsored Drawn mixed pairs that was held a few weeks ago. Congratulations to Margaret and Robin on their victory. https://thpsolicitors.co.uk/
