Post date: Jun 30, 2018 5:20:29 PM

Stamford Indoor Bowls Club will again be staging the Nigel Kettle Memorial Open Singles tournament on Saturday, September 29 and Sunday, September 30.

The Saturday will feature three evening local qualifying sessions from 6pm with the bulk of the draw starting on Sunday morning, allowing visiting players to reach the venue. Last year players came from as far afield as Kent, Norfolk, Yorkshire, Wiltshire and even Scotland.

First prize is £700 with £500 to the runner-up, £150 to losing semi-finalists and £75 to each of the losing quarter-finalists. Points will also be achieved towards an overall Open Singles Circuit order of merit, which leads to a final at Potters Leisure Resort in 2019.

Previous winners include internationals Mark Royal and Jordan Philpott with defending champion Paul Maynard expected to have another crack at the title.

Entry is £17.50 per player. Look out for an entry form to download on this site shortly.
