Competitions 2019

This year’s competitions have started well. It has been pleasing to note that both mens and ladies competitions have continued to see increases in numbers. The day events, the Mixed Triples and Mixed Pairs, continue to be popular.
The vast majority of early matches have been completed on schedule. The competition secretaries are normally prepared to allow short extensions when a need arises, but they need to be kept informed. Players are reminded that matches should be played in proper grey or white dress and that markers also need to be properly attired. Also, when there are a number of matches in the same session, could efforts be made to ensure that the draw for rinks is fairly witnessed by as many of the participants as possible. In general, we are very happy with the way matches are completed.
By early June first rounds are now completed. In the ladies competitions two newer members Lynne Pavitt and Marion Sutton have gone through in the first round of Yard of the Jack. Marion and Patsy Burrows are through in the Handicap and Lynne and Jenny Miles in the Alma Lodge. Some familiar names have started well including Linda M, Maggie,Jo, Liz, Ann M, Carol, Val, Joy and Jill.
Joyce Hadfield played against Marion Sutton yesterday afternoon and had a draw. They played another end and Joyce won by one point. So well done Marion who is a comparatively new player and well done our Joyce, you are amazing and an inspiration to us all.
It is early days in the mens competitions, in the championship the standout result was a win for Bob Brinning, and Brian McRitchie reversed last year’s final result in his match. In Yard of the Jack there were good wins for Garth, Ray and Dave Medley. Harvey did well to get through in the Handicap. In other competitions some newer members have gone through including Mike Neale Paul Hills, Ken Blakemore and Colin Agnew
