PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB
Apologies to our army of supporters who were expecting us to play Youlgrave this week, but yours truly jumped a week on the fixture list. However, those eagle eyed Blog peeps spotted my deliberate error and corrected it. Clever people aren’t they?
Matlock Tuesday League.
Away -19 July – 6.30pm – Bradwell.
Of late we cannot have any complaints about the weather; it has been glorious, shame about the bowls in the Tuesday League though. We were well and truly beaten by Bradwell. At the time of writing Bradwell were well and truly bottom of the league though the way they despatched us you would have thought the opposite. We only managed to win one game and thank goodness for that with Harry B and Rick M scoring 21 – 9. It would have been a major loss, but for those 21 points. John B and Clara E scrambled to 12, with Pat B and Sue A getting a further 11. In the final game we could only muster 8. The totals were Bradwell 72, Parwich 52. Still as I said the weather was glorious! We definitely play Youlgrave next week so we are still looking for a camel to stick under the green.
- Next match – Home – Youlgrave – 26 July – 6.30pm.
Matlock Thursday League
Home – Wirksworth – 21 July – 1.45pm.
Having come a deserved cropper on Tuesday night we needed to ‘up our game’ as they say for this match. Again great weather and even better bowls. Rick M and Harry B carrying on where they left off on Tuesday won 21 – 1. What a start. Although our other pairs could not match this result they did play really well. Liz H and Sue A coming back from 9 -1 down to get us 16 valuable points. Ian J and Clara E did have a bit of an off day but still got 11. The score after doubles was 48 – 43 Parwich in the lead.
In the singles John H and Tony A led the way with 15 – 6 and 15 – 2 wins respectively. The remainder of our singles players managed to restrict their opponents to single figures, although we did lose one game. The total score in the singles was Parwich 82, Wirksworth 43. Final score 130 – 86 to Parwich. Still riding high in second place in the league.
- Next match – Home – Matlock Park – 1.45 pm
Another good club event on Sunday, the square robin. Come and see what one looks like down at Parsons Croft at around 10.30 am.
