Contratulations to Alan Sampson -winning the Men's Club Championship Singles against Vin O'Flaherty and Karen Harrington - winning the Women's Club Championship Singles against Cornelia Smith. Both games played on 18th December in excellent bowling conditions on Torquay's green saw high standard bowling. Karen, the defending champion, got out to an early lead with consistent bowling & conversions when they were needed. Cornelia however held her nerve to catch up a bit, but in the end Karen drew away to a 11 shot win. Alan, also the defending champion, had a closer match with Vin catching up to even the score mid-way. Alan however was able to finish it off with an 7 shot victory. Good luck in the GBR Champion of Champions in February; the Women's starting the 5th and the Men's starting the 12th. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Congratulations to Tim Jenkinson & Daryl Kitchin who have just won our Club Championship Men's Pairs, defeating Gary Banks and Alan Sampson with a winning bowl from Daryl in a close finish. The game was played in very challenging conditions (read typhoon!) on Sunday 30th October, 2016. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Congratulations to Cornelia Smith & Maureen Gribble who have won our Club Championship Women's Pairs, defeating Effie Wake & Eileen Williams.
