Presidents Plate and pizza!
After a wet start it turned out to be very enjoyable day of bowls competing for the Presidents Plate.
The round-robin format ensured everyone was involved for the whole day but pizza at lunch time was a welcome boost.
As it coincided with Father’s Day it brought a few extra spectators who saw that the eventual finalists were determined on the very last shot of the day.
Sunbury ladies at Ashford
Sunday 2nd June saw the early rounds of the Women’s Two Woods championship at Ashford Bowling Club. Sunbury were well represented with all five putting in good performances and one progressing to the latter rounds. An enjoyable time was had by all, including spectators.
Road closure – Tuesday 28May
Lower Hampton Road will be closed from around 9:30am to 3:30pm due to a large crane lifting a house boat into the river. The entrance to the bowls club should still be accessible but the exit will be blocked off.
Please spread the word as any overrun may impact the club night.
A wet win at Walton
Despite two breaks for rain Sunbury came through to record a 79-42 win in their first competitive match of the season.
