We have had a different couple of bowling weeks. Each year the Thursday League stops the normal league games and takes part in the Greenaway Charity Tournament. Parwich has had quite a lot of success in the match over recent years. Last year a member managed to win the ‘plate’ competition. This year we did not manage to win in either ‘pool’, although one player got knocked out in the semi final. Anyway the Greenaway was the winner, on the day the League players raised in excess of £1100 for the Charity.
Tuesday League – 9 August – Away – Bradwell
We were behind Bradwell in the league by 4 points. And although we did win three out of the four games we lost heavily in the fourth game. The final result was Bradwell 63, Parwich 66, meaning we were still behind Bradwell by one point!
Tuesday League – 16 August – Home – Wirksworth
We had one of our best results of the season winning all four games and very convincingly. The final score was Parwich 84 (the maximum) Wirksworth 46. This result has given us three wins on the trot and lifted us to fifth in the League. With only three matches to go before the end of the season let us hope our good form continues.
Next match 23 August – Away – Bakewell
Matlock Thursday Friendly League – 18 August – Home – Matlock Park
The good form in our Tuesday league matches carried over this week to the Thursday League. Although we only won one game in the doubles the scores were reasonably level at the end of them. We more than made up the deficit in the singles however, winning all six games for the first time this season. The final score was a resounding 141 to 103 win to Parwich.
Next match 25 August Away – Whitworth Park
We have a Club competition this Sunday. We start on the ‘green’ at 10.30 in the morning. If you fancy a meander down we will be pleased to see you.
