Three Christow members travelled to Bromsgrove on Friday to take part in the world fours & pairs competition. The world fours were played on Saturday with Trevor, Carol and Tom skipped by Richard Ivings. They came third in the round robin rounds and were entered into the plate competition but unfortunately they were knocked out in the first round.
On Sunday with Carol and Tom rushing off on holiday Richard and Trevor were preparing to play in the world pairs.They came second in their group and progressed to the main competition. Winning their first match 12-8 having been at one stage 6-1 down, they progressed to second round but were beaten 10-8 by an experienced pair who are previous English champions but both Trevor and Richard had a throughly enjoyable day.
More information of other Devon players taking part can be found on the Devon website.
well done Trevor and Richard.Hopefully it will inspire others from the club to compete against the best on the Short Mat Players tour
