PROGRAMME for SKEGNESS
ENGLISH BOWLING FEDERATION NATIONAL FINALS AT THE SUN CASTLE GREENS NORTH PARADE, SKEGNESS FROM AUGUST 22nd TO 29TH August 2015 The National Finals opened on Saturday with the Under 25 Reg Wright Final. It was a very close game with the result in doubt until the final wood had been bowled. Unfortunately we lost by 3 shots. This was an excellent effort and showed that the County has some very good bowlers coming through to challenge for places in the Senior sides. On Sunday it was the turn of the Newton side to take on Humberside. We made an excellent start and opened up a 15 shot lead after 5 ends and increased it all the way through to finally win by 44 shots. This was the 3rd win in the last 4 years. Great credit to Captain Bob Askey. A good start to the week with Jonathan West winning his first game in the 4 wood Singles 21- 12. Dennis Skayman, john Withers and Neil East won 19 - 17 in the 2 Wood Rinks. Andy Bennett, Graham Teal and Rob Skinner won 14 - 13 in the 3 Wood triples, The only loss today was Terry Hudson, Joyce and Trevor Bannister in the Mixed Rinks just by 3 shots. Day 2.
