Memorial Trophy Pairs Competition
Our Memorial Trophy Pairs Competition was held on Saturday 10th August 2024.
At this competition we remember those members who have passed recently and this year we wore pink in honour of the three young girls whose life’s were tragically taken recently in Southport.
The sun was shining and 34 bowlers took part in a busy day of bowling. There were some really strong pairings which led to a lot of close games.
The main competition semi-finals were
Brenda Gillings and John Townsend v Joan Sanderson and Colin Milnes – it was a close game but Brenda and John came through to win 21-15
Sue Davies and John Ashcroft v Roy Cropper and Frank Melling another close game but Sue and John won to 14.
The final saw some excellent bowling and most of the game it was neck and neck until Sue and John came through to take the win 21-17. Congratulations to our Memorial Trophy winners Sue Davies and John Ashcroft.
We also ran a consolation round which also saw some excellent bowling.
It was a long day and it was decided that the 2 finalists would share the winnings.
Congratulations to Pat Cropper and Dave Rimmer and Noreen Lewis and Tony Wakefield for reaching the consolation final.
It was a lovely day of bowling and I would like to thank everyone who helped to make it a successful day.
