Saturday 3rd September saw the conclusion of the clubs internal competitions finals. The first match up was the Maggie Hedges Pairs between Rob Todd/Dave Smith v Lesley Hodge/Cathy Miller. Following a hard fought game, the girls (Lesley & Cathy) came through to be declared the winners. Next up was the Ossie Cup (18 ends 2 woods) between Peter Collyer and Bruce Atkin, Peter taking the game in the 14 end with some fine and accurate bowling. Breaking for lunch and shetlering from a heavy down pour of rain, the Ken Russell Shield (101 Shots) was next played between Rob Todd v Arthur Newman. With a fast scoring games, Rob eventually took the game with the magic 101 to be decleared the winner. The final two games (first to 21 shots) to be played was that of the Ladies Individual Championship Trophy between Lesley Hodge v Cathy Miller and the Mens Individual Champion (Cracknell Cup) between Peter Smith v Ken Rapley. In the ladies game Lesley came through to take the winning place while in the mens game, Peter came through to be declared the winner. Photos of the winners presentations can be viewed in the Photo Gallery
We must say a big thank you to our Ken Rapley for organising such a successful finals day. Thank you also for Penny and Wendy (hopefully we haven't missed anyone) for keeping all supplied with coffee and tea through out the day, not forgetting those who acted as markers.

Yesterday, Saturday 6th August saw the Willie Groves competition played out between twelve of our members. Everybody agreed, it was a great day, excellent playing green and good company all round, although a little hot out on the green in both some of the nerve-racking played shots and the weather.
The play throughout the day saw some exciting and nail biting games, having those watching on the edge of their seats. With the conclusion of the round robin matches, the final saw Graham Thurley v Dave Smith fighting it out in a brilliantly played final. It all coming down to the last end with only one shot in it, Dave Smith taking the winning shot and was declared the winner. Well done Dave and congratulations.
Must also say a huge thank you to our Ken Rapley for organising the competition and running a great days bowling, enjoyed by everybody.

REMINDER - COPING WITH THE HOT WEATHER
With hot weather conditions forecast this coming week, all are advised to take extra care when playing out on the green. This is especially relevant in direct sunlight where temperatures exceed 25° - 30°+. In cases where temperatures exceed 30+, it maybe advisable to postpone the match to a later date.
Make sure you use a good UVA sunscreen protection, have plenty of cold drinks and maybe a cold wet towel wrapped around your neck. Most importantly, a wide brimmed hat to keep the sun of the back of your neck. For more information click link below

PARKING
As members will know, the grass verge opposite the pathway at the side of the bowls green has been used for parking but due to brambles and low branches, cars have been left badly parked with their wheels in the roadway. To improve the situation, these obstructions (brambles/low branches) have kindly been cut back and the area mowed to facilitate a clear strip to park on. All are therefore encouraged to park fully on the grass verge with none of their wheels on the road.

WESTFIELD PAIR TRIUMPH IN SURREY MIXED PAIRS
Monday 6th June saw our Wendy Todd & Graham Thurley take on an experienced team from Cranleigh BC in the 1st Round of the Surrey Mixed Pairs. Despite going down 8-0 after just two ends, they fought back to take a 1 shot lead going into the final 18th end. With excitement mounting with Cranleight then taking 1 shot in the 18th, thereby drawing the scores, an extra end had to be played to decide the outright winner. With a very tight nip and tuck final end, Wendy and Graham were triumphant winning the match by a single shot. Congratulations both. Lets's keep our fingers crossed in the next round on their trip over to Seale & Sands BC.
