With a few new names in the team for the first game of four in the John’s Trophy round robin, Bowls Wiltshire Ladies were hoping for a better start than in 2014.
The game was played in lovely sunshine but there was not much to cheer about at the first score collection after 5 ends – BW being 32 shots adrift. Things improved as the match progressed and there was a very close finish with BW just losing out by a frustrating 3 shots overall. There were wins for Alex Jacobs by 18 shots and Sue Ochyra by 6 and Linda Kingston managed to secure a point with a draw.
There are three more games to play so let’s hope that we can re group and add more points to our total next time when we play Dorset at West Moors BC on Saturday 20th June.
