11 June 2014

Tenby Arches ladies travelled to Neyland last Wednesday hoping to put behind them the poor results sequence of previous games. Having secured maximum points in their home fixture with Neyland,  the Arches ladies were anxious to emulate this score on the green of the current president of West Wales Ladies Bowling Association, Margaret Sanders. Just a few ends into the game, it became obvious that the Arches ladies were enjoying the green and with confidence high and enthusiastic encouragement coming from all, they got to the halfway stage leading by 31 shots to 14. Helping skip Helen along were Margaret, who was having a game to remember, and with Meryl and Gerry joining in the action, they found themselves 10 shots ahead at tea.with one count of five on the card. It was more of the same in the second half, with Helen's impressive ladies running out winners by 27 shots to 14 against Janet Sutton and her quartet. Skipping the second Arches rink was Alison, who was supported by ladies captain Carol, Ginnie and stalwart Mair, who continues to roll back the years. Allison's ladies were always in command of their game against Val Hubbard's rink. With the 'Beekenbomber’ in full flow, wicking off numerous woods during the game, they ran out comfortable winners by 21 shots to12. This was one of the best performances of the season from the Arches ladies, who headed back over the Cleddau with a 48 shots to 26 victory and maximum points on the cards.
