Northern Counties V Durham

Report on the Northern Counties match on 26th July – Northumberland v Durham

This was played at Gosforth WA which again was running at a pace you would expect indoors. Sad to say Durham found the pace from the start. Our players struggled to keep their woods on the green. It was obvious from 5 ends Northumberland were under the cosh, Durham increasing their lead by the 10th end to +47. It was at this juncture the secretary put the chocolate bars back into the fridge for next weeks game.

Bev Wares rink won 9 of the 18 ends scoring 15 v 17 which certainly took a bit of the pain away. Next week sees the last Northern Counties game away to Cumbria at Dalston

It is hoped this weeks result can be shelved and we finish on a high. Chocolate bars at the ready for energy (not as a treat).
