Bishopsteignton Away Match Report

12 players along with their fan club (thanks for the support) travelled to Bishopsteignton for the last away match for Christow in this season Teignbridge League. The first session saw Ava, Sean & Ian playing on mat 1 and Chloe, Brad & Jim on mat 2. Both mats are quite slow and have the slight quirks you would expect from a village hall with a wooden floor. Ian and his team played a good game but to their frustration so did Bishops who did not allow them to settle into the game. Jim's team started strongly and pulled out an 8 - 3 lead by the 7th end and managed to win the game by 4 shots. After tea and biscuits session 2 got underway with Mary, Geoff & Neil on mat 1 and Maureen, Ralph & Trevor on mat 2. Neil's team got off to a good start by scoring 5 shots on the 2nd end which helped them maintain the lead through the match and finished with a 4 shot advantage. Trevor and his team got off to a positive start and had a good battle and pushed bishops to the final end, but were unfortunate to loose the match by 1 shot. A very enjoyable evening despite the result.
