We have a Winner!!
Congratulations to our Captain, Sharon, who won the Blue Group Trophy at the South Pembs Singles Tournament, held today at Heatherton. Representing East Williamston were Sharon, Theresa, Phill and Fran. Players were split into groups in the morning with the winners of each group going into the Red Group and the other players from each group went into the Blue Group. Theresa played well, winning one of her group games but had to play against Sharon in the afternoon, but after a close game Sharon took the win. Unfortunately today wasn’t the day for Phill, who lost all of his games. Having won all of her group games Fran went into the Group Winners Red Group, where she beat two further opponents to get into the semi final. At the end of the 7th end the game was tied, so an extra end was played. Frans last bowl looked to be holding, with her opponent agreeing. However the umpire suggested a measure and whilst Frans bowl looked closest to the jack, it proved to be 2mm further away and the game went to her opponent. However an excellent achievement finishing 3rd in the Winners Red Group. Sharon had won two of her four group games and progressed into the Blue Group. Where she won a further three matches to get into the Final. It was a very close final against Alan of Skrinkle and by the end of the seventh end the game was tied. An extra end was played and her opponent was holding with two bowls, but Sharons last shot of the game proved to be the winner as it gently curled in, landed next to the jack and took the end, the game and the trophy!🏆 A great result overall for East Williamston
