Whitsun Cup - 31st July (Just a tad late)
As I heard someone say last week I think I am going to change my weather provider, the first date for the Whitsun Cup was postponed due to heavy rain & cold weather, now we have to play in 30 degree heat (cant win!) We only had 16 players so I divided this in to four teams of 4, due to the heat I reduced the game to just 3 games of 5 ends, with the top scoring teams playing off against each other in a final.
The final was between Team B Roger Blackburn, Chris Roberts, June Greene and Ken Lewis, against Team C John Holmes, Jenny Reed, Keith Brooks and Tony Battaglia. Val Sawyer was in Team C until the Final, but she was feeling the heat so Jenny stepped in to help the team. I think Val was pacing herself as she was off to a run the marathon at the OLYMPICS and a Disco in the evening (sensible).
The final was won by Team B June Greene, Chris Roberts, Ken Lewis and Roger Blackburn.
Thank you to all that took part on this very hot day, thanks to Phil for doing the bar, and Keith for helping to lay out the green.
