Club Comps Club

Comps are progressing but as usual at this time of the year people are struggling to play matches because they are involved in so many club commitments and due to the unavailability of the green because of Club commitments and Bowls Scotland activities. Doug and I have been chasing people and we will continue to do so.

 

Bowls Scotland

Unfortunately all 4 of the entries in the Over 55s singles have been eliminated as has Harlaw B in the Over 55s 4’s. Harlaw A (Bill Smith, Mike Cruickshank, Garry Horne & Bruce Stewart however have beaten Cruden Bay and Belhelvie and now play a strong Westhill team in the Quarter Finals.

 

Singles

Fergus Muat has won 2 games against Cruden Bay and Balgownie and is through to play Conner Milne from Tarves in the Quarter Finals.  Unfortunately Lee Simpson lost in the first round losing to Methlick Pairs.
