PARWICH CROWN GREEN BOWLS CLUB

So, four weeks into a new season and still no new members!! Where are you all? Anyway here goes another waste of space.

Matlock Tuesday bowls league.
Home – Chatsworth B – 29 April

Having done really well last week with a bit of a scratch team because of players being away we were back to nearly full strength this week. Rick and Edith were back to their imperious best winning 21 – 10. We managed to win two more of the remaining three games and only just lost the other. The final score was Parwich 82, Chatsworth 57. Not a bad result when you consider the maximum points you can score is 84.

We will certainly lose in the next few weeks, but at the moment WE ARE STILL TOP OF THE LEAGUE. The chances are it will be next Tuesday as we are playing a very very good team with lots of members.

• Next match – Away – Buxton Park – 6 May – 6.30pm.

Matlock Thursday Friendly League.
Away – Whitworth Park – 1 May

We were doing reasonably well in this league, but we came unstuck with a vengeance this match. Whitworth were top of the league and after their display against us will no doubt keep them there. Those of you who read this twaddle will know we very often struggle in the doubles and this week was no exception. We did get close in one game, but were handsomely beaten in the other two. Whitworth 63, Parwich 34. We did fair a little better in the singles, but again lost 81 – 71. Rick M and Edith (no surprise) winning, with John H only failing by one shot. The overall score 138 – 105 our worst result so far.

Next week we have a ‘blank’ week so will be playing a Club tournament. Why not come and have look.

• Next match – Club match – Square Robin – 8 May 1.00pm Parsons Croft.

Now the scary thing is that we are playing quite well and have only lost one match so far, and that was a close call.

Matlock Tuesday bowls league.
Away – Matlock Bath – 22 April

As I mentioned last week we are so short of players that Audrey B had to step in and help us out and she helped us out with a vengeance. Audrey playing like a demon and just about assisted by John B won the game 21 – 13. Dennis and Clara E also came up winners 21 – 17. Rick, without his usual sidekick Edith, won brilliantly with Dot a fabulous substitute playing equally like a demon. Our remaining pair only just lost their game 21 – 17. The overall score therefore was Parwich 80, Matlock 62. Not bad for a scratch team.

To cap it all we are still miraculously TOP OF THE LEAGUE!
