Denny Plate re-shuffle for North Cave IBC clash

Post date: Nov 30, 2016 6:43:08 PM

Stamford has had to re-shuffle its Denny Plate team ahead of next week's clash with East Yorkshire side North Cave because of player commitments requiring that they stay closer to home for the Saturday morning match (December 10, 10am start).

As a result Adam Warrington and Roger Martin will form a new partnership at No.3 and skip respectively in a home rink that also includes John Holroyd and Cliff Watson.

Peter Edwards will again skip at home, while Martyn Dolby and Paul Bailey, both successful at Melton in the last round, again take their rinks on the road.

Denny Plate: Stamford v North Cave: Home - Dave Hudson, Doug Want, Derek King, Peter Edwards; John Holroyd, Cliff Watson, Adam Warrington, Roger Martin. Away - Stephen Harris, Mick Humphreys, Jonathan Earl, Martyn Dolby; Richard Allam, Dusty Miller, Bob Warters, Paul Bailey.

Stamford's women are field a similar team against Church Gresley (Stamford and Swadlincote, 11am) to that they chose in the outstanding win against Leicester in the previous round of the Yetton Plate.

Home - Joyce Foster, Betty Sims, Rose March, Peggy Birch; Joan Robinson, Elizabeth Wallace, Flick Rogers, Margaret Bloxham. Away - June Brennan, Carol Warters, Shirley Suffling, Christine Ford; Margaret Andrews, Moira Holroyd, Sue Moir, Glenys Edwards.

Stamford women take on Peterborough in the over 60s Mason Trophy double rink on Friday (10 am). Home - J Foster, F Rogers, G Edwards, J Robinson. Away - J Brennan, C Warters, S Suffling, C Ford.

Although they were able to claim only four of the 18 points available against Skegness, Stamford's Lincs Over 60s League Division Two side maintained their second place.

They won only two of the five rinks, with skips Albert Horton and Alec March emerging with victories.

Result (Stamford names only):

Lincs Over 60s League Second Division. Skegness 101 Stamford 82. W Kettle, T Freeman, R Harvey, K Vinter lost 11-24; D Howarth, M Dye, Mal Smith, A March won 26-14; D Veasey, B Tuplin, C Jones, D Henshaw lost 11-30; A Lonslow, R Graham, P Banks, A Horton won 22-18; T Barwell, G Corby, M Owens, J Geary lost 12-15.
