The Great Escape
After being the leagues most pointless team for most of the season a late surge sees us not only picking up points but forcing our way out of relegation.
Although confirmation is still awaited it is likely that Cockton Hill and Shildon Town are to be relegated and we live to fight another day.
This is of a great achievement for this bowling club and we would like to say thanks to all members. It has been a difficult year and many have suffered heavy regular defeats but team spirit was never lost which helped our chances in the latter stages. I’m sure next year now we are settled we will be a much stronger force in Division 1.
We also have to give our congratulations to the following club competition winners from the weekend:-
Stan Johnson Plate
Winner Bill Morland
Runner-up Barry Hopkins Jnr
Mick Coleman Shield
Winner Sandra Hopkins
Runner-up Peter Boyle
