Match Report - 01 Dec 2024, Tiverton Canal Bowling Club Friendly Rink beat Morchard Bishop


Tiverton Canal's second ever match continued on from their first with another comprehensive win, this time securing three of the four rinks. On the whole it was a pretty even contest for the much of the afternoon, well that's apart from the rink skipped by Jim Evans, who, in his first match for the new Club, over saw a the biggest win of the day, 27 - 10. Garfield Barnett's side looked to be in control early on but Morchard Bishop's Dave Gibbs got some momentum going from end seven onwards culminating in a '5' on the twelfth that put Morchard into a 10 - 14 lead. It was nip and tuck from there on in but despite a '3' for Garfield on the last, Dave Gibbs finished 16 - 18 to the good.
Both sides skipped by Phil Saunders and John Gutteridge, respectfully, experienced close encounters but just had the edge to come away with wins with a few shots in hand.

A very successful afternoon and all played in an excellent spirit.

TCBC = 3 Winning Rinks (71 Shots)
