Day Two Battles and Looking Ahead to the Weekend!
By the Green-side Insider
Day two of the Bowls England National Finals brought another intense day of action on the greens for Northumberland. While the results didn’t go our way, our bowlers put up a fierce fight in every single contest.
Day Two Round-Up
- Pegasus Homes Women’s Over 60′ Pairs (Rink C5):
- C. Dawson and B. Ware took to the green for a morning clash against Sussex’s H. Jones and D. De Silva. Across a hard-fought encounter, our Whitley & Monkseaton duo played some fantastic bowls to put themselves in winning positions on multiple occasions, frequently holding commanding counts of 3s and 4s. However, brilliant counters from the opposing skip repeatedly turned the momentum of the game right round, ultimately tipping the scales as Dawson and Ware bowed out 20–12.
Looking Ahead
That concludes our action for Day 2, and with no games scheduled for Day 3, the Green-side Insider will be taking a brief pause before returning to reporting duties on Saturday (Day 4).
Mark your calendars for a 9:00 am start, as the Jameson duo take to the green for their eagerly anticipated quarter-final tie in the Family Pairs against Worcestershire! (Note: Your Insider will be in transit to Leamington on Saturday morning, so live updates may be a little slower than usual—thank you for bearing with us!)
Rest up, team. We’ll be back on the greens soon!
