Men’s Bowls
The result of the Semi Final of the Major/Minor Pairs played over the weekend: Steven Sole and Robert Walls played Roger Cox and Boyd Stanley. Steven and Robert were out to a lead 7 nil after only two ends, but with a never say die attitude Roger and Boyd fought back and levelled the score 7 all. Steven and Robert then settled and soon opened a handy lead, try as they might Roger and Boyd were unable to catch up, but with determination they slowly fought back and by end 17 had managed to take the lead and from then on they were not headed and went on to a win 30 shots to 23 shots over 24 ends.
