We nearly managed to win both matches this week, missing out on one by a point. We did have some good individual games however.
Matlock Tuesday League.
Away – 29 May – Chatsworth.
This really is a nice place to play bowls, win or lose. The evening was gloriously warm and sunny. The match did not start well for us however, losing the first doubles game 21-8. The other three doubles came to our rescue and we finished 71 to Parwich 49 to Chatsworth. Four wins in a row now in this league. Having been down at the bottom of the League we are slowly making our up. Long may it continue.
Next match – Home – Bradwell B – 6.30pm 5 June.
Thursday League.
Away – Matlock Park – 31 May.
We do appear to be having problems trying to win the three doubles games you have to play in this league. Unfortunately we did not win one. The score after these games was 63 to 38. The cavalry in the form of the singles again came to our rescue winning 81 to 57. The final match score was therefore 120 to Matlock and 119 to Parwich. Not a bad result really considering we lost.
Next match – Home – Bakewell – 7 June – 1.45pm.
What a cracking time the Sheffield Caravan Group had last weekend. I think nearly all the members had a go. It was so nice to see the Green full of people who were enjoying themselves so much. A pity the people who live in the village do not seem to want to join in.
