Match Report - 27 May 2026, Tiverton Canal Bowling Club Over 60s navy beat Uffculme A
On another very hot afternoon, a slightly changed side took on an Uffculme side who'd won two of their first three matches, so were not to be taken lightly. Well, Stewart must have wondered what hit him, bagging a '7' straight off was the perfect start and they took advantage to move to 11 up without reply after four. Uffculme managed to pick up a few singles but Stewart's side got themselves back on a roll to win six ends to go 24 - 3 to the good. Uffculme, managed to secure the last four, including a '4' to register a more respectable score line, 24 - 12, but it was still an excellent win for Canal.
John's triple, had amore topsy turvey match, looked good one moment then bang, Uffculme would come back with some excellent countering, especially from Geoff Jenkins. Scores fluctuated throughout, 3 - 1, 3 - 5, 8 - 5, 9 - 9, 9 - 10 before Canal picked up a '2' and a '3' to go 14 - 10 up. With ends running out, it was starting to look promising and after another '3' put them on their way to go 18 - 11 up! With just one end to play, Uffculme gained a '2'. Final score 18 - 13, Our first full 8 Points!
