PARWICH BOWLS CLUB – Week commencing 3 May 2010.
This week what can I say? What a team. The walking, nay, staggering wounded have done the impossible. Well we did win both our games this week, which for us is awesome! Believe it of not the opposition did actually turn up as well. Anyway being the modest sort of outfit we are the wonderfully, marvellous details are as follows.
Tuesday League – Home to Matlock Bath.
Our first win in this league. We won three games to one. The match score was 75 to 67. Not a particularly convincing result, but mighty oaks from tiny acorns grow.
We were fourth from bottom of the league. This win keeps us where we are I think. Still better than dropping down a place.
Next match – Away- Baslow 11 May. 6.30
Thursday League – Home- Matlock Park.
It looked after the doubles games we were in for a bit of a hiding. We lost two games to one. The points for the opposition were considerable whilst ours were not very good at all.
Anyway a fabulous turnaround in the singles took place and we won five out of the six games. Bearing in mind the maximum points you can get in the singles is 90 (6 X 15), we got 85 to the oppositions 46.
Combining the doubles and singles scores we won by 123 to 97.
What a result.
Next match – Home – Baslow B 13 May. 1.30 ish.
We are entertaining a team from Ellastone on Sunday in a friendly. We will be down on the green around 2.00pm. Why not come down and have a look.
