DOUBLE DEFEATS FOR SAINTS AND BULLS
DOUBLE DEFEATS FOR SAINTS AND BULLS
Stamford's first endeavour with two teams in the EIBA 'Fantastic Fives' summer league didn't end well for either, languishing at the bottom of a very competitive table against teams from Church Gresley, Melton and Charwood.
Stamford's first endeavour with two teams in the EIBA 'Fantastic Fives' summer league didn't end well for either, languishing at the bottom of a very competitive table against teams from Church Gresley, Melton and Charwood.
In a final double-header at Stamford, a maximum eight points by Melton over Stamford Saints was enough to earn them a place in the knock-out stages over Church Gresley who conceded two points against the Bulls in a 6-2 victory. Saints took the wooden spoon.
Against Melton, Jan Want lost the singles 6-10 and with David Howarth and Isobel Reading lost the triples by a similar margin after dropping a late four count.
Saints lost the fours 13-8 after struggling at 3-11 before Ron Blake and Roger Graham conceded the pairs 8-7 on the final end.
As for the Bulls, Peter Edwards went down 5-11 to Church Gresley's Mark McConnell in the singles, dropped a crucial four count before June Brennan, Glenys Edwards, Tony Barwell and John Little were outplayed 14-4.
Barwell and Edwards started well in the pairs before a five count put them on the back foot and they eventually lost 11-13.
However, June, Glenys and John salvaged some pride with a five of their own and an eventual 11-5 victory, robbing the visitors of a place in the next round of matches.
