Whilst the weather threatened to spoil the day early on, the sun did come out and the bowling competition and lunch was enjoyed by all. The competition was played as a round robin with the winners and runners up from both groups then playing a semi final.
Semi Finals:
Pat and Keith v Ken and Heather – winners Pat and Keith
Michael and Milly v Glenda and Brian – winners Michael and Milly
Final
Pat and Keith v Michael and Milly – WINNERS Michael and Milly
The day was a great success and was almost completed in glorious sunshine. Unfortunately the rain didn’t hold off and the semi finals and final were played in the pouring rain. However it didn’t spoil the day and there was some fantastic bowling on show. From 32 pairs at the beginning of the day the final was played out between Siddal BC and Greenroyd BC.
The Hebden League Merit Final took place at Sowerby Tennis and Bowling Club on Sunday June 11th.
The winner was Richard Hargreaves. Congratulations Richard.
