This was the first of a two legged 'Friendly' playing for the Tiverton Cup which was established some forty or so years ago, following and in recognition of Tiverton Parks crucial crucial help in setting up Morchard Bishop's Bowling Club. This has now been carried over to Tiverton Canal Bowling Club and we'll play the second leg at Morchard Bishop on Saturday 9th August 2025.
Thankfully, heavy showers that threatened the start of the match, passed, just in time allowing for very enjoyable contests to proceed across the drying green. With Morchard playing with a strong contingent of players, it provided for a nice competitive edge so it was good to see Tiverton Canal performing so well.
The weather played it's part, towards the latter stages in particular, unfortunately curtailing the last few ends. This may or may not have affected one or two rinks final scores but, on balance, it's thought it would have made for a fair outcome.
