Cofis keep on winning
BLAENAU Ffestiniog hold a seven-point lead at the North Wales Coast League Division A summit after last weekend’s 9-3 beating of visitors Conwy A.
The Quarrymen made it nine wins in 10 outings with another fine display which Jason Hughes emerge as top block with a 21-8 card.
Other home winners were: Kenneth Jones (20-10), Barry John Hughes (2114), Iwan Vaughan Jones (21-17), Martin Wyn Hughes (21-19), Dylan Vaughan Jones (21-20) and David Wyn Hughes (21-20).
This Saturday sees Blaenau visit St Asaph A.
Caernarfon made it six straight wins in Division B when they saw off visitors Bethesda 9-3.
Dafydd Rhys Williams topped the home chart with a 21-1 triumph.
Dion Williams (21-6) was another single-figures success for the Cofis, whose other winners were Steve Allan (21-11), Gavin Davies (21-13), Ali Jones (21-14), David Noel Williams (21-16) and Alan Evans (21-19).
Caernarfon will be hard pressed to make it seven in a row this Saturday as they visit leaders Penmaenmawr A.
Penygroes are third in Division D after an 11-1 drubbing of Penrhyn New Hall B.
Tom Parry headed the home charge at 21-7, Gareth Gillard also shining on 21-9.

Penygroes travel to second-placed Llanrwst B on Saturday. ● A 21-1 achievement by Dave Jones was the stand-out feature as Llanfairpwll soared to the top of the Anglesey/ Bangor and District Bowls Wednesday League last week ( June 8).
The villagers made their impact with an 8-4 performance against Caernarfon at their opponents’ green, where at least the home side’s Eiddon Jones resisted at 21-6.
The previous week’s title pacemakers, Beaumaris, on 35 points, were not in action, which enabled Llanfairpwll, now with 38, to clamber above them, while Benllech moved into third spot after their sparkling home show.
The Seasiders slammed Bethesda 10-2, Pat Smithson 21-4, Will Jones 21-5 and Dennis Taylor 21-8. ● Mid-table Beaumaris and Holyhead both completed clean-sweep 10-0 victories over lowly placed opponents in the Anglesey/Bangor and District Bowls League’s Monday Division last week ( June 6).
Beaumaris thrashed visitors Benllech, while Holyhead’s big triumph at the Park green was against Caernarfon.
Bethesda also outplayed still-winless Academi Llanfair 9-1, with Paul Williams on 21-6 submitting the best card.
Bangor City, the division leaders, were without a match, while there were two postponements – Criccieth v Llangefni and Llanfairpwll v Penygroes.
