Fine win for Loch Ladies

Watton (Loch Neaton) Bowls Club's ladies recorded an excellent 6-2 home win against Mundford ladies.

They very nearly took maximum points but went down by one shot on the losing rink -this after going down 0-8 the previous week to Ashill ladies, when they could not overcome the deficit of playing with a lady short.

Whilst the ADL A team have had a rest period the B team have played two away matches. From Wymondham B they returned empty handed going down 0-8, but a 6-2 win at Weeting was compensation to Colin and his team. The C team picked up two points away to Shropham's six, and then onto Wicklewood where they went down 0-8.

The men fought hard against Wymondham C at home and despite leading during the second period on all three rinks they could not maintain their form and eventually lost by 1-4.

On Wednesday the club were host to the Essex Vice-President's touring team. On a very hot afternoon the visitors were comfortable winners over the six rinks played.

The Nowak Trophy takes place at Mundford on Sunday, July 12.

This annual event for a local charity is supported by Connaught, Mundford, Thetford and Watton. Play commences at 10 am and continues throughout the afternoon.
