Melton and District Indoor Bowls Friendly at Spalding

A team of 24 players from Melton went by coach to play their first friendly game against a team from Spalding on Sunday 14th November.
Melton’s six rinks of four players had quite a battle for a start to find the line and weight on Spalding’s green, but after about 10 ends Melton we’re leading overall. The challenging but enjoyable match was won by Melton 109 shots to Spaldings 89 shots.
Two of Melton’s rinks tied on shot difference, but the winning rink with the most winning ends was won by Yvonne Kent, Viv Pugh, Steve Kent, and skipped by Eva Redford. The team were given President’s pens by Pat Wright, Melton’s Captain for the day. A small gift was exchanged between Pat Wright and Spalding’s Captain Alan Tokely. Who congratulated Melton on their win.
Melton also won the Football team raffle with Dave Hudson receiving £15.00 of Lottery tickets.
