PARWICH BOWLS CLUB – Week commencing 12 July 2010.

Mixed fortunes again this week. One win one loss.

Tuesday League – Away – Hathersage.

On occasions you have to confess that playing bowls when it is heaving it down with rain and blowing a gale is not necessarily the best pastime. This was such an occasion. It was not pleasant!!

We had lost to Hathersage at home earlier in the season and we were not looking forward to the reverse fixture. We should not have worried. We won by 80 to 62, which was, all bar one point, the exact opposite of the loss we suffered at home.

Next match – Home – Whitwirth Park – 20 July – 6.30

Thursday League – Home – Lafarge Cement Hope.

Even though we lost we gave a reasonable account of ourselves. Lafarge are a lot higher in the league than us and a much bigger club.

We won one out of the three doubles games and shared the singles three games each. However the games Lafarge won were won by a greater margin and the final score was 112 to 131.

Next match –Away – Matlock Park – 22 July. 1.30 ish.

You are still allowed to come along to the green. It is better than going to the dentist! And it does not cost a thing.

We are having a club tournament on Sunday called a ‘Square Robin’ come and have a look. We will be on the green at around 10.30 am.
