Twelve of our members competed for the Adelaide Hough Shield on Monday 10th<\/sup> June. Adelaide was a leading member of our bowls team for some years until ill-health prevented her from continuing. She donated this Sheild in 1991, and this was the 34th<\/sup> year the competition has been held \u2013 last year we had to abandon it because of torrential rain. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This year, despite a very bad forecast, we were lucky with the weather with only one short spell of fairly light rain. It was particularly good to welcome Ann C and Eileen \u2013 who haven’t played bowls before \u2013 but proved to be very good at it! <\/p>\n\n\n

The winner was Ann T, Janet P came 2nd<\/sup> and Pat G 3rd<\/sup>. Well done Ann, you retained the shield after winning in 2022. As always we are indebted to Joan P, a former member, who organised the ‘Round Robin’ tournament for us. It is lovely that she still helps us out, always with a smile!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
