THE final of our Club Pairs was played between Di De La Cruz and Joan Griffin against Ardis Ellsmore and Angela Fryer. Ardis and Angela made a great start but Di and Joan soon caught up and the scoring was ‘shot for shot’ through the remainder of the game. The final score after 21 ends was 17 all. This called for a tie breaker with Ardis and Angela coming through with three winning bowls. Congratulations Ardis and Angela, and Di and Joan – some fabulous bowls played and a great game to watch, kept everyone on the edge of their seats!!
