Our first competition of the year The Green Opening Cup was held on Sunday 6 April. Club President Terry Lawless (pictured) officially opened the green by bowling the first bowl. How can we describe Terry's bowling skills? Let's just say he is very consistent. Some day he might practice beforehand and spoil the fun!

The competition saw 32 players battling it out in conditions that were sunny, dry and warm (if you stayed out of the Arctic wind). This was a straight knock out competition. After some superb games in the early rounds, closely fought semi-finals saw David Deighton and Alastair Wright fall at that stage to Cameron Mason and Mike Lucas respectively. The final was a very tight contest in front of a decent crowd who had stayed on to watch and enjoy the weather with Cameron pulling away at the end with some excellent bowling to seal the win. Cameron is pictured being presented with the trophy by Terry.

This year we are running an Inter-team competition for players who are registered to play for club teams. Group qualifiers will take place on Sunday18 May, Sunday 25 May and Sunday 8 June with the semi-finals and final on 29 June, all starting at 12 noon. Players should contact their team captains for details.

Our next open competition will be the Graham Hill Trophy on Sunday 6 July - details to follow.
