Parwich Crown Green Bowls Club
For the first time this season we managed to win both our matches in the leagues. Having said that it must have been because we had better webbed feet than the opposition. Both games were played in the most appalling wet conditions.
Matlock Tuesday League.
Home – 5 June – Bradwell B.
Bradwell are/were slightly higher than us in the league. However we did win three out of the four games, only narrowly losing the fourth. Having played in gloriously warm sunshine the previous Tuesday it was a real battle against the elements as well as the opposition. The final score was 80 to Parwich and 62 to Bradwell. The result may have taken us a place higher in the league.
Next match – Away – Matlock Bath – 6.30pm 12 June.
Thursday League.
Home – Bakewell – 7 June.
We again had problems in the doubles games this week. We only just won one game; however, the scores were close in the other two so we were only 6 points behind. The weather from the start had been atrocious and got worse as the afternoon wore on. Trying to bowl was a bit of a lottery to say the least. In the end we won 4 out of the 6 singles giving us an overall win of 128 to 119.
Next match – Away – Baslow – 14 June – 1.45pm.
This Sunday we play another Club competition. Start time is 2.00pm Parsons Croft. Come along and have a look, and a cup of tea.
John B.
