Relegated!
South Park are officially relegated after a point deduction enforced by the League. This report appeared in the Northern Echo today as another decision against us was made without contacting us first. We have been deducted 5 points for failing to show at Leeholme BC, its a shame that we have been punished here for a league error. A formal complaint will be made against the League next week.
Although we are to battle agianst the league to revoke this it may be that relegation maybe a good thing this time round. We are a developing team and life in the 2nd Division may help our new bowlers. The 1st Division is currently beyond our ability and a few wins at a lower level will build confidence.
At this stage we feel a big mention should be made for the new bowlers from last season who have battled significantly and competed at a high level this year, we are proud of their achievements and improvements this year. The most improved players this year are Andy Bell, Simon Brodie, Richard Copeland and Paul Dobson, this is followed by a bowler who has made the step into one of our top bowlers in Martin Snelling.
