This week began with our open pairs competition and we are truly grateful to everyone who helped make the day a great success. Our club once again showing we can host events as good as any. Congratulations to all the players who took part and particularly the new champions, Paul Williamson and Steve Batten, and finalists Owain and Kailea Dando.
The following day we hosted the semi finals of the ladies county competition and again we are very grateful to everyone who helped make this another success. Congratulations to all the ladies who moved on to county finals.
Our ladies then continued their recent good form with a 8-2 victory over Bedwellty.
Our West Mon team suffered another defeat at Rhymney Royal 14-0, despite some very tight rink scores, the point all slipped away from us. We still sit top of the table but it is looking like a winner takes all battle at Blaina a week wednesday to decide the title.
Friday our senior fours went to Llandrindod Wells to compete in the national finals and despite a spirited preformance fell just short by one shot to the Havelock Park team.
With several players missing, our teams were somewhat depleted on the weekend and the knockon effect to our MBA team was quite clear as they were heavily defeated by a good Ynysddu team at home 14-0.
The PG team though did manage to hold on for a 10-4 victory at Barry Athletic and are now in a good position to at least maintain division 2 status next season.
This week sees more national championship games and we wish the guys all the best at Llandrindod, Roger Jones goes Tuesday in the open singles and our senior pairs go on Wednesday.
