In the next round the semifinal:

The club spectators witnessed some great bowling and some really tight scores, so congratulations to the ladies semi final winners Jackie and Mags and the gents semi final winners Alan and Colin. Both pairs will compete in their respective Presidents Cup finals on “Finals Day” Saturday 7th September.

Congratulations to all who took part and gave a splendid display of their bowling skills. Just a reminder that all first round losers along with the first round losers of the Mixed singles game qualify for the Longthorpe Plate, we are hoping that we can arrange for this competition to be played in a similar format to today’s competition.
