Parwich Crown Green Bowls Club

Open Singles Competition

Sunday 12 May was the first Club competition, the Open Singles. We had a good turnout of players which resulted in semis finals being played by Dawn Allsopp against Harry Bunting and the other semi was Edith Rider against John Henbery.

These semi finals were played first to reach 15. Dawn started really well and unfortunately for Harry she did not relinquish the lead and went through to her fifth final in six years! Edith by the same token started really well against John and got through comfortably to the final.

In the final Dawn again got off to a flying start and had reached 6 before Edith was on the card. Keeping up some really class bowling Dawn continued to forge ahead. It was not until Dawn got to 12 that Edith started to play as we all know she could. The score got to 14-12 to Dawn before Dawn put on another great display of bowling coming out on top 21 – 16, a really good match.

Dawn has now won this competition six times and five of those have come in the last six years. Can anybody stop her from getting another hat- trick of wins next year ? The weather may have been awful, but the bowls made up for that.

Congratulations Dawn.
