DBE vs Tamworth Indoor Bowls Club

Tamworth Indoor Bowls Club entertained a Disability Bowls England squad including players from as far a field as Plymouth and Sunderland.  

DBE Teams were 

  1. Ray Smith, Pip Smith & Neil Smith
  2. Darren Moon, Amy Brookes & Winston Healey
  3. Alice Atkin, Harry Atkin & Steve Angus
  4. Keith Haggerwood, Timmy Swann & Bob Love
  5. Lee Whiteley, Colin Wagstaff & John Greaves
  6. Geoff Bennett, Diane Rogers & John Rogers 

Tamworth took and early overall lead but this did not last long as DBE bowlers got used to the rinks.  This was a very close match every inch of the way.  After 10 ends the score was level at 55 all, at 16 ends DBE had a 1 shot lead 80-79. As the last 12 ends played and finished the lead swung from one team to the other finally the match ended with a very narrow victory for DBE by 96 shots to 93.

Everyone finished this excellent match with light refreshments of twac, coffee cakes and biscuits.  Many thanks to Tamworths players and organisers for hosting an excellent afternoon of bowling.
