Congratulations to Dave Bedford and Brian Sutton on winning the Club’s final one-day competition of the season, the Last Chance Cup. Their opponents in the final were Pat McArthur and Steve McManus and after ten ends it was Pat and Steve who held an 11-9 advantage, helped by a three at the 9th end. Dave and Brian hit form at this stage however and some excellent lead bowls by Brian saw them count at the next five ends to establish an 18-11 lead and although Pat and Steve scored a single to make it 12-18, Dave and Brian ran out 21-12 winners.
This was Dave’s first club competition win since winning the Chairman’s Shield in 2014 and Brian’s third pairs success, having won the Chairman’s Shield and the Floodlit Trophy in 2020.
A plate competition was held and this was won by Chris McManus and Mike Milne, with a 15-11 win in the final against Sue Andersen and Alex Rimmer.
