Bowls: As you were after top two both triumph
THERE is no change at the top of Bury and District Bowls League Division One after leaders, Greene King, and second-placed St Botolphs A, both gained four points from their away games against St Edmundsbury A and Tuddenham.
Stanton remain in third place, despite losing 60-75 (1.5-4.5 points) at Walsham.
In Division Two, Elmswell gained the advantage at the top after dropping half-a-point in their home game against Risbygate B.
Surprisingly, Hengrave and Mildenhall both lost 6-0 in their away games against Pakenham and Great Barton. Despite this, both maintain second and third places respectively.
In Division Three, British Sugar A gained 5.5 points at home against St Botolphs B to remain top of the table.
Risbygate A achieved maximum points at home against Thetford Ex-Servicemen – which took them to second place. However, Barnham are only half-a-point behind with a game in hand.
Brandon were the fourth team this week to take all six points on their visit to Thurston. Their rink of V Umfreville, Len Cox and Steve Hinton scored 29-6 – the rink of the week.
