BRAY BOWLS

What a week to forget, and a ‘ wee’ story to finish-read on. On Monday, our Division 4 team were away to Westmanstown, lost one rink, won one rink and drew the other (lost the overall score though) on a lovely summer’s evening.

On Tuesday evening our Division 1 team travelled to St James’s Gate where they were given a bowling lesson by the lads from ‘The Gate’.

Our Ladies then played Westmanstown in Bray on Wednesday, winning and gaining some revenge for the Men’s defeat on Monday.

Thursday saw our Vets 1 team travel back to ‘ The Gate’ where they travelled a man short, won a rink and lost a rink.

Vets 2 went to CYM and also lost, however Vets 3 registered a home win against Clontarf. Congratulations to Eamonn Kennedy/ Christy McEvoy and David McMahon/John Dunne on winning their Pairs matches against Crumlin and Railway Union respectively-they have now progressed to the last 16, unfortunately they have been drawn against each in the next round!

Oh and that story I promised, well you know how sometimes when you travel to a match or game and you realise you have forgotten something (shoes, clubs, clothers etc), well the Vets 2 team left bray to go to CYM, 8 men, 2 cars.

You do the maths, and yep one car left with three, leaving one bowler ‘behind’ still in the toilet in Bray…..guess who? Answers on a postcard please!
