Open 3 Ball Bowmaker

Saturday 15th June 2024

40 teams of 3 players took part in the above competition on a very wet and windy 'summers day' that really created difficult conditions and put their skills to the test. With more Away teams taking part than Home teams they benefited from prizes for the first 4 places compared to the first 3 places for the home teams. However home advantage was certainly a benefit with the first 3 places overall going to home players.  The raffle brought in some £320 to be split between the Cancer Research Charity and our sprinkler fund.
