A good turnout of bowlers enjoyed a successful competition played in lovely weather, making for an excellent day on the green.

Congratulations go to Graham Williams and Dan Ayres, who were the standout team of the day. They were the only pair to win all three of their games, earning them well-deserved winners of the Tibby Cup.

Thanks go to Chris Baker and Rita Wetherell for providing a delicious afternoon tea, which was greatly appreciated by everyone and rounded off an enjoyable day’s bowling.

Well done to all who took part and helped make the event such a success.
