ADAM AND EVE TOURNAMENT
Matches were played on Saturday, up to the quarter-finals. There was a much larger entry than previous years and also three of the younger bowlers entered for the first time.
They were Mathew Dick, James Criddle and Miss Danna Rogers, who all bowled really well, and I'm sure they enjoyed themselves.
Tournament organiser, Mr. Mike Gouldingay, said that all matches were played in good spirits, and it was a very successful day.
The last eight bowlers who got through were Mr. D. Robb, Mrs. G. Rees, Mrs. C. Evans, Mr. T. Harris, Mr. E. Dezelle, Mr. J. Jones, Mr. H. Davies and Mr. A. Whitehouse.
The next stage will be played during tournament week.
CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS
John Roberts, Heatherton's singles champion, playing in the Champion of Champions tournament in North Wales, won his first round and then lost in the second round to the winner of the last year's tournament. Well played John.
