The Win One Lose One Continues
Posted in Bowls, Societies, Sport on Saturday April 28, 2012| Leave a Comment »
We seem to be in a bit of a ‘win one lose one’ loop at the moment and the lose one is thus far in the same league.
Matlock Tuesday League – Home – 24 April – Bradwell A.
We cannot seem to get going in this league. Last year we started really well and were close to the top, but this year no good. Three matches three losses. Bradwell were relegated from the higher division last year and we could not do anything to win one game let alone the match. We lost all four games and the final result was Bradwell 84, Parwich 51. We must be holding everybody up at the bottom. I just keep hoping that the teams we have played thus far are the best in the league!
Next match – Away – Bakewell 1 May.
Thursday League – Away – Matlock Bath – 26 April.
What a contrast in this league. The weather was appalling and the green is very compact and tricky, but we steamed along! Although we only won one of the three doubles games are points scored were only 4 less than our opponents. The singles games were shared three each, however, our points scored were considerably more than Matlock. The final score was therefore Matlock 124, Parwich 135. Three wins so far out of four. Not bad.
Home – Whitworth Park – 3 May – 1.45pm.
I think everybody in Parwich must be watching some fabulous programme on the TV on Monday nights. Can you let me know which channel it’s on? Still nobody out there.

Win One, Lose One

One win one loss this week. A little better than one win two losses last week. Anyway…..
Matlock Tuesday League.
Home – 17 April – Chatsworth A.
This team got relegated from the first division last season, but they still are very good. We did not manage to win a game. We came close in one game, but lost 84 to 48 in the end. Considering we finished fourth in the league last year we have not made a very auspicious start. Hope we do better next week.
Next match – Home – Bradwell A 24 April 6.30pm.
Thursday League.
Did anybody spot last week’s deliberate mistake! Although we won we did win all the doubles games as well as the singles, otherwise our score would have been the maximum 153. We did lose one doubles game. However it was still a great win.
Home – Matlock Park A – 19 April. Having nearly hit the jackpot last week we thought things could not get better. Although we did not win as many games we did score more points. We won the doubles games 62 to 48 and the singles games 83 to 50. The overall score therefore was one better than last week 145 to 98! At this rate we will be near the top of the division. I am sure however next weeks match will bring us down to earth.
Next match – Away Matlock Bath – 26 April 1.45pm.
Still nobody to play with on Monday nights. Is there anybody out there?

Success on Friday 13th

Parwich Crown Green Bowls Club
So we are off and bowling, well throwing a circular thing at a smaller white thing. Thankfully as you who live here will know the snow did not last long and we have been able to play a match or two with varying success this week.
Matlock Tuesday League.
Home – 10 April – Matlock Park B.Matches in this league normally start at 6.30pm, but in early season you try to get going sooner rather than late. Just as well. I think also the opposition had better miner’s hats than we did because by the time the match ended it was very dark.
Anyway we only won one of the four games, although in the games we lost we did manage to accumulate good scores. Now just as a reminder you have to play four doubles games first up to 21 wins the game. The maximum points you can score therefore is 84. Having lost three out of four the result was 81 to Matlock and 73 Parwich, which as things go is not too bad a losing score if you understand what I mean.
Next match – Away – Chatsworth 17 April.
Thursday League.
Because of the cancellation of the first match we played two matches this week.
Again just as a reminder the format of the match is three doubles up to 21 and six singles up to 15. Maximum score therefore 153.
Away – 12 April – Chatsworth.
We unfortunately did not manage to win any doubles games, indeed we managed to lose them all quite nicely. However in the singles we won three out of the six. The final scores were Chatsworth 133, Parwich 109.
Home – Cancelled match – Wirksworth – Friday 13 April.
Friday the 13th enjoy! Not only did we win all the doubles games, (63 to 36) we also won all six singles as well. I cannot recall us ever managing to do this before, although I am sure that some members of the Club can put me right. Anyway the final result was Parwich 144, Wirksworth 103.
Next match – Home Matlock Park ‘A’ – 19 April.
Don’t forget we will be having a few ‘ends’ on Monday night at about 6.30. Come and have a try. Nobody new has turned up so far, it’s very lonely on our own!

Parwich Crown Green Bowls Club
First week of the new bowls season, at least we did not lose. We did not win either, the match was cancelled! Because of the vagaries of our British weather we had a dusting of the white stuff on the green.
Matlock Tuesday League.
Home – 10 April – Matlock Park B.
We have not played this Club in the Tuesday League; they have a team in the higher division. For the past few years this higher team has won the League. Don’t know what to expect from the lower division team, but I have no doubt they will be good. Any way all will be revealed next Tuesday at 6.30 ish at Parsons Croft.
Thursday League.
Away – 12 April – Chatsworth – 1.45pm
As I probably said last year this is a lovely venue. This team got relegated from the higher division last year so I think they will be tough to beat. We will see.
Don’t forget we will be having a few ‘ends’ on Monday night at about 6.30. Come and have a try.

Now I know you have all been champing at the bit over the winter, watching repeat after repeat on the idiot’s lantern, well now you need wait no longer to get in some gentle exercise and enjoy yourself. Yes, the bowls season is about to start.
As in previous years the green will be open for anybody who wants to have a go on Monday 2 April at around 6.30pm. Again we will be having practise every Monday at around this time. We desperately need more members so come along. All you need is a pair of flat soled shoes. The Club will lend you the bowls. So get yourselves down to Parsons Croft on Monday evening. It will change your life!
We still (just) have two league teams and the first match is on Thursday 5 April at home at 1.45pm. Come along and have a look. Support your Village team. You will even get a nice cup of tea and biscuit.
See you on the green.

Zumba
Posted in Memorial hall, Sport on Thursday February 9, 2012| 2 Comments »
Sadly we’ve just had the last Zumba class for the moment. Numbers have dropped to the point where the class is not viable for Lizzie. I am really sorry about this as I have enjoyed it so much. I am absolutely no good at dancing but it has been such a privilege to learn dance steps with a professional dancer. Zumba routines work both the body and mind. I was surprised at how hard I had to concentrate! And yes, it was sometimes an effort to get to the class but how fantastic to have yet another class arranged for us in the village! Also, I have not laughed till I cried for a long time!!
Zumba!

Parwich Ladies Football Team, 1960

The Derby Telegraph recently published this photo of the Parwich Ladies Football team in 1960 (click to enlarge).
On the back row, from left: Christine Weston, Shirley Gibbs, Jean Calladine, Brenda Brownlee, Mary Edge, Hazel Calladine, Veronica Twigge.
On the front row: Maud Evans, Evelyn Chadwick, Carol Allen, Phyllis Allsop.
The “Little Sealed Packages” blog has also written about this photo. The blogger’s parents grew up in Parwich, and she has some further questions to ask about the photo. (Coincidentally, the Webster family are also mentioned, who have also been the subject of a recent query.)
Perhaps one of our readers would be able to reply to her?
Finally, from our own blog archives, we also have a poster advertising a ladies’ football match in 1938. Ladies’ football must have been a long-standing tradition in the village; could the tradition ever be revived?

Hill Race Trophy – do you know where it is?
Posted in Sport on Thursday December 22, 2011| Leave a Comment »
Graham Johnson has received an email from Paul Mannion, who was the 2010 winner of the Parwich Hill Race. Paul says:
I was just wondering if you could help me with something, or at least point me in the right direction?
I was at a race over at the Roaches today and was talking to a guy called Matt Jones from Ripley who I know from races, and we were catching up etc.
He won The Parwich Hill Race this year (2011) and said he didn’t get the trophy, as it had gone missing again !!
Now, I gave back the trophy this year, so was shocked to hear it went missing in the first place…
It would be great if we could reunite him with the missing trophy.
Could you put me in touch with the relevant people or ask around I would be very grateful.
If you have any information, please contact Graham directly (344), or mail the blog team at parwich.hotmail.co.uk.

Sport Relief 2012 – a chance to be involved
Posted in Events, School, Sport on Friday October 14, 2011| Leave a Comment »
Hi,
I’m contacting you with a cheeky plea for help/request for info from Comic Relief – I hope you don’t mind!Comic Relief would love to get Parwich involved in Sport Relief 2012 but I’m not sure who in your village would be able to help me do this.
From experience recreation committees or sports clubs are the most suitable people for me to speak to so I wondered if you would be kind enough to pass my email details – l.thornton@comicrelief.com (and this link – http://www.sportrelief.com/the-mile/organise-an-event ) on to them in the hope they’ll get in touch if they are interested?
Your help and support would be massively appreciated.
Thanks, Liz
Organise A Mile Event – What’s In it For You
Whether you’re a local council, leisure centre, sports club or university, there’s a lot to be said for organising your very own Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile:
- It raises crucial cash for life-changing projects up and down the country and across the world.
- It’s a great way to show off your town or, if you run a club, to raise your profile and get new members.
- It’s inclusive, community-based, plus it gets everyone active and involved in a massive national event.
Our currently our nearest venue for the mile run is Ashbourne Recreation Ground on 25th March – Whether you do 1, 3 or 6 miles – as a family team, with your mates or against the clock – you’ll have a fantastic time when you go the distance. And until 15th December it’s half price entry, just £3 for adults, £1.50 for children and £7.50 for a family of four.
Sports Relief is also kicking off in schools.

Last week of the season. A good season all round considering the membership we have. Two great wins to finish off.
Tuesday League
6 September – Home – Whitworth Park.
We managed to win all four games in the match. One very convincingly, one by just one point. The result was 84 to Parwich 60 to Whitworth. We have been hovering between sixth to fourth position in the league. This result and scores from other matches means we have finally finished fourth, one place higher than last year. A really creditable performance for such a small club.
Matlock Thursday Friendly League
9 September – Home – Matlock Bath
A final resounding win for us. We won all three of the doubles games and four out of the six singles. The score was 136 to us and 97 to Matlock. Matlock were ahead of us in the league, but with this conclusive win we have overtaken them. Again we have been around fifth to seventh in the league. Depending on other results we could make fifth.
We have one final game this Sunday before we put the green to bed for the winter. If you fancy a final look come down at 2.00pm. For a number of years the Club has had an invitation from Ashbourne Bowls Club to play indoor bowls during the winter period. This is very informal, but most enjoyable for those taking part. The season starts on Monday 10 October at 1.30 pm at the Ashbourne Club. If you fancy something to do on a cold winter afternoon then why not give it a try. Not sure where you can get such good entertainment for a £1 these days. Contact a member of the bowls club for more details.
All being well there will be further fabulous commentaries next year. Hope to speak to you electronically next April. Have good and safe winter.

Ashbourne Half Marathon & Fun Run
Posted in Sport on Saturday September 10, 2011| Leave a Comment »
Sunday 11th September – 10.30am
The Ashbourne Half has been running for 17 years, it is a challenging course. The race starts at the east of the town and the runners run south and steadily uphill for a mile before turning west on a level road behind the town for a further mile. They then enter the Dales passing through the village of Thorpe to the fields overlooking Ilam. They then run down into the valley of Ilam and then out and up on to Bloore Pastures. The course goes down towards Oakover Park and out on to the long level run in through Mayfield’s Hanging Bridge into Ashbourne. The race ends on the recreation ground.
The Fun Run has its fitness fanatics but quite a lot of the entries are true fun runners and include many well known local characters. The race is around the town and is about three miles. It follows the Half course onto and along Windmill Lane and then drops down past the old Cattle Market site to the War Memorial, around via the Duck Ponds and in through the back of the Recreation Ground finishing by the Pavilion. All finishers receive a medal and there is the Bob Hudson Trophy for the overall winner.
Parking – at the small car park just off Cokayne Avenue, by the Recreation Ground or at the main car park at Shaw Croft.
Parwich Strongest Man 2011 Results
Posted in 2011, Posts of Note, Sport on Sunday September 4, 2011| 4 Comments »
As a number of people have already said, what a great day! Many thanks to Rob, Shaun, Tracy and the many others who organised the event. Although the change of date and venue forced by problems with insurance resulted in fewer competitors than last year, those who stepped up produced a close fought competition.
With old favourites and some new rounds there were ten challengers competing in six events:

Overall Andy Fletcher came first for the second year running, but only just, with Tom Slater just being beaten into second place by 2 points. Steve Lynam and Paul Richmond were joint third, but after a draw on the tiebreak arm wrestling, Steve was given 3rd place on the toss of a coin.
The six events were as follows: (more…)

Two losses this week, however, if a team can have a ‘good’ loss then we had one this week!
Tuesday League – 30 August – Away – Hathersage
As said on previous occasions this is a cracking venue. It’s a pity that they have such a good bowls team! They are second in the league and although we gave a good account of ourselves we were beaten by the better side 77 to 64. Even after this loss because other results favoured us we have managed to stay in fifth place in the league. Only one more match to play this season let us hope that we have a good game. We may even sneak into fourth.
Last match 6 September – Home – Whitworth Park
Matlock Thursday Friendly League – 1 Sept – Away – Lafarge (Hope)
Again a nice green, shame about the quarry silos! Although we only won one of the three doubles games we only were behind by 8 points. In the singles we won 4 out of the six singles and won this encounter by seven points. The overall result was therefore 128 to Lafarge and 127 to us. A good loss!
Last match 9 September – Home – Matlock Bath.

We have been having a fair amount of success of late. This week we had mixed fortunes: winning one match, but losing the other.
Tuesday league.
23 August – Away – Bakewell.
Bakewell were ahead of us in the league and we always do not play well on their green. The green is long and thin, not the usual square. Anyway, we managed to win three out of the four games and came out winners at 71 to 46. Because of this handsome win, we have overtaken them in the league and have moved up to fifth place. Next week, the penultimate match of the season: we are away to the top of the league!
Next match: 30 August – Away – Hathersage.
Matlock Thursday Friendly League.
Again, Whitworth Park are a strong team – and so it proved in the match. We only managed to win one of the three doubles, and we shared the six singles three each. The result was therefore 125 to Whitworth and 115 to us. Not a bad score, considering we lost.
Next match: 1 September Away – Lafarge, Hope.

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.

Thankfully we have had a change in fortune in one of the leagues we play in and in the other, although we lost, we tried very hard.
Tuesday League – 2 August – Home – Matlock Bath
After struggling for a few weeks in this league we finally managed to win, and what an emphatic win it was. We won three of the four games and the game we lost was only lost by one point. The result therefore was 83 to Parwich and 60 to Matlock Bath. Not so sure how we will get on next week – we are playing a very strong side.
Next match 9 August – Away – Bradwell.
Matlock Thursday Friendly League – 4 August – Away – Tideswell
The venue at Tideswell is really lovely, but for us it is a difficult place to play. They have lots of members in their club and their teams are always very strong. This week continued to prove the case. We thought we had done well in the doubles games only losing 50 to 41. However they obviously saved their better players for the singles games where we only managed to win two out of the six. The final result was 129 to Tideswell 98 to Parwich.
We do not have a match next week in the Thursday League as the ‘Greenaway’ competition takes place. This is the annual charity competition to support the Greenaway Centre in Darley Dale. The league players have managed to raise thousands of pounds for the centre over the years. Let us hope for another good day next Thursday.
On Sunday we play one of our own competitions, the Round Robin. It lasts all day as you will probably gather from the name each doubles pair plays all other pairs. The game starts at 10.30am this Sunday 7 August. Come down have a look.

PP5, before, after & prize giving
Posted in 2011, Parwich Panoramic 5, Photography, Posts of Note, Pub, Sport, Young people on Wednesday August 3, 2011| Leave a Comment »
This was the third Parwich Panoramic Five Fell Race (PP5) with the best turnout so far, 112 runners. There were 24 clubs represented and 34 non affiliated runners. The overall winner was Chris Nicoll from Derby Tri Club and he just missed the course record by 37 seconds. 28 ladies ran, with the leading lady, Jo Bednall coming in 42nd overall and 70 veterans participated: aged 40+. Four juniors ran, all finishing in the top 78% of the field, with the fastest coming in 28th position aged only 11!
“Best fell race”, “Great course and views”, “Best marked course” and “Friendliest marshalls” were some of the comments that have been made about this year’s race – a tremendous amount of work was put into last night’s events, so these words are very much appreciated.
The event is co-ordinated by Graham J, with a very supportive band of workers, who deliver, fetch, carry, marshal, photograph etc etc.. So big thanks to everyone, who helped, ran and supported this fabulous evening. (Below is Graham busy organising his “troops”!)
The evening also saw the running of the Junior Fell Race which is organised independently by David Denton: another great success. For those youngsters who would like to do more running, just check out his website for more local runs.
Finally a quick plug for next year’s PP5, which is provisionally booked for Tuesday 7th August 2012 – tbc.

The poor form continues! We have not won a match for ages now.
Tuesday league
26 July – Away – Whitworth Park.
I suppose if there is such a thing as a good loss this may possibly be considered one! Whitworth Park are second in the league and we were not looking forward to the match. Although we only won one game out of the four we did get quite good points from the other games. In the end we lost 69 to 61 not a bad result. Unfortunately our next match is against Matlock Bath and they have a very good team.
Next match 2 August – Home – Matlock Bath.
Matlock Thursday Friendly League.
28 July – Home – Bradwell.
We again lost all the doubles games 63 to 36, however, the singles games came to our rescue. In four out of the six games we managed to win and the two other games we only closely lost. The points were 81 to Parwich and 58 to Bradwell. Total match score therefore was a close loss 117 to 121.
Next match 4 August – Away – Tideswell.

Not a good week at all. We lost in both leagues. Unfortunately we do not seem to be able to put a consistently good run of wins together in either League.
Tuesday league – 19 July – Home – Ashwood Park.
Up until this season Ashwood Park have always been at least a top half of the table team and we have always struggled against them. They have been at the bottom of the league for some time and on their green earlier this season we beat them convincingly, however, when we played them this week they played to their usual high standard. If we carry on playing like this we will be at the bottm. We only managed to win one game and ‘comfortably’ lost the match 72 to 58. We had slipped to mid table, but with this result we are sure to drop into the bottom half.
Next match 28 July – Home – Bradwell.
Matlock Thursday Friendly League – 21 July – Away – Matlock Golf Club.
The Golf Club are always extremely competitive, even in the ‘Friendly League’ and this week proved no exception. They are third in the league and this weeks result will keep them there. We did not win any of the three doubles games and although we won four out of the six singles games some of our losses were quite heavy. We only scored 69 points to their 68. This made the overall match score a win for the Golf Club 131 to 111.
Next match 26 July – Away – Whitworth Park.

Spotted in the news: an informative write-up of the Hill Race in the Ripley & Heanor News, and a curious tale of painted sheep in the Stunner, furnished with quotes from Parwich’s Ben Chadfield.
