Purser Cup Report
The Purser cup for 2022 was played on Sunday 10th July in blazing sunshine and high temperatures.
We had 24 bowlers split in to 8 teams of three (triples) 4 teams in one league 1 and 4 teams in league 2.
Each league play three games of 5 ends, with the top two teams from each league going through to the final.
The final consisted of team A from league 1 (John Walker, Gordon Taylor, Maire Duncan) and team F From League 2 (Heather Hallchurch, Jan Sargeant , Roger Blackburn)
Our President Gordon sadly was not able to play in the final as he had pulled a muscle over reaching with a fore hand shot. Gordon was substituted by Mr Wilcox but just as the final started on the first end John Walker had a queer turn where he felt very faint and was unable to carry on.
Therefore the final of the Purser cup will be played at a later date when all are well.
Best wishes and a speedy recovery to both Gordon & John.
A thank you to Ian Griffiths & Alfred Jochum who stepped in at the last minute to make up for late withdrawals.
Adrian
Competitions Secretary.
