STOCKTON’S KING RULES HIGHLEY

Jamie King is the new League 1 Singles Champion with defending champion Tim Ealey giving him a worthy game in the final. Jamie, who is the latest player to join the Norton side and who had played the corners most of the afternoon used them to be 9-7 up after 11 ends before Tim came back to lead 14-13 after 20 ends. Jamie then scored two on the mark Tim had bowled well all day and then went to 20 before Tim replied with a run of three before bowling a bad end to concede the title. League Chairman Mark Bennett thanked Cleobury Bowling Club for the use of their excellent facilities and the buffet that they had kindly provided. He also passed his best wishes to Frank Booth who is in hospital.

LOL ROLLING BACK THE YEARS!

Lol Russon continued to roll back the years in the Division 2 cup a week after narrowly losing in the final of the Jim Palmer Trophy. His hardest and longest match was in the first round against Guy Lewis which saw them tied at 20 across after 30 ends and it needed one of the woods of the day to win it. The semi-final and final were more comfortable affairs with Lol beating team mates Ron Smith and Dean Law. League Chairman Mark Bennett again thanked Cleobury for a fantastic green and facilities and also the supporters who had turned up on the day.
