Last night, Wednesday 17th June, Pam Naish, Janice Endersby, Gill Pochetty and Hazel Baker, AKA the Burnham Plate team, played their 5th game in the preliminary round and came away with their 5th win!!  The final score was CSG 16 to Amersham's 12.  Well done to all and onto the quarter final which will be played on Sunday 12th July.  Opposing team TBA.  It was an excellent and very close game so well played all.  Thank you also to our usual valued supporters.

On Saturday 13th June we played at Chessvale in a 3 Counties match and unfortuately we lost on all 5 triples. The artifical surface was too much for us this time.

Last night, Wednesday 10th June, our team took on Denham in the fourth game of the Burnham Plate and won 18-14!

Four out of four games won with just next week against Amersham to go. The weather was not kind and everyone got pretty wet and cold so congratulations all on keeping going and giving the spectators a nail biting finish.  Thanks also to our supporters who turned out on a very cold and wet evening!

We held our Open Day yesterday Sunday 7th June and although we had a very wet day on the Saturday it iturned out dry and warm. We had a nice lot of people come to see us and the day went off very well. We had a lot of our members come to help and we had our signs and balloons out to make everyone welcome. I must pick out Candi Ivey who made and supplied lots of different cakes for the occasion which were appreciated by all, especially me. The people doing teas were very busy as were the helpers outside on and around the green.

Another wet day for our 3 Counties match at Home against High Wycombe on Saturday 6th June. It was drizzling when we started and not very warm and we came in for tea at 8 ends hoping it would get better. But after tea it was worse and we played to 10 ends which counted as a match and we agreed to stop. They had one triple of all men which had us at a disadvantage. We won on 2 triples and lost on 3 but our overall score was 55 to 44 so we shared the points 6 each. Our top triple was Flora Alderton, John Anderson and Barry Mills by 18 shots to 3. and Graham Buchanan, Hazel Baker and Mike Skerry being the other winning triple.

Yesterday Wednesday 3rd June our Burnham Plate team played away to Gerrards Cross and had their third win (3 wins out of 3 games), with another resounding score of 18 CSG to 13 GX!  Well done again to Pam McNeil, Janice Endersby, Gill Pochetty and Hazel Baker.  Thanks also to our reserve Pam Naish for coming along and all our valued supporters!  The weather wasn't the best with some rain and a cold wind but everyone carried on enthusiastically with the game.  Thank you all!

We had a very interesting afternoon yesterday 2nd June at Tring where we had a friendly match. The weather was good when we arrived but after we started we kept hearing lots of thunder in the distance. After about 10 ends it started to rain as well and then

some of the players saw lightning which was enough to call off the match. We were winning on 3 triples and drawn on the other 1 and we won by 61 to 44 shots even though we had not completed 18 ends.

We played at Wexham in a 3 Counties match on Sunday 31st May and although the weather was good the green was very trying with bumps and lack of grass all over it. We only managed to win one triple, who were losing 3 to 22 on the 10th end and came back to win 24 to 23. A really good win for the team of Chris Moir, Candi Ivey and Callum Kavanagh. This gave us 2 points to their 10.

 

Last night Monday 1st June we played at Home against Chesham in a C&T match which we won by 45 to 40 shots even though we only won 1 triple out of 3. This gave us 6 points to 4. Our winning triple was Flora Alderton, John Anderson and Barry Mills  who won by 19 to 11 shots.  We also had a heavy downpour of rain in the last half of the match to contend with.

Top Club team

 

On Wednesday 27th May our ladies played the first round of the Top Club at home against Marlow.  We had a win of 3 to 1 out of the 4 disciplines only losing the singles.  Unfortunately, Chris Moir, who was playing in the singles, had a breathing upset and had to withdraw.  Moira Austin stood in for the remainder of the match and I'm glad to say that Chris recovered well.

 

The ladies have worked hard over the past few weeks to make the team happen and we now await confirmation of our next opponent, either Gerrards Cross or Chesham.

 

Our team was made up of: Chris Moir then our reserve of Moira Austin in the singles.

Gill Pochetty and Hazel Baker in the pairs. 

Jan Endersby, Pam McNeil and Sue Skerry in the triples. 

Linda James, Cheryl Spriggs,  Angela Cripps and Pam Naish in the fours. 

Jan Still was our other reserve plus chief cheer leader.

Spring Plate Competition - 25th May

 

Despite the sweltering hot day and confusion regarding the start time, all players eventually arrived just before 11am thus enabling the competition to take place.  Due to the heat it was decided to play 6 ends instead of the usual 8.  Although it was very hot we managed to keep to the schedule and everyone seemed to enjoy the day.

 

After the 3 games these were the top 2 teams to contest the final:

 

Denise Williams, Pam Naish and Brian Ashton -v- Barry Mills, Pam McNeil and Paul Naish. 

The winners were Barry's team by 8 shots to 3.

 

On Thursday 21st May we played away at Amersham in the 3 Counties.  It was a warm and sunny afternoon and Chalfont won on 3 of the 5 triples.  The score was 63 to Chalfont and 80 to Amersham and we finish with 6 points each.

 

On Wednesday 13th May our ladies travelled through rain, hail, thunder and lightning to Iver Heath Bowls Club to play the first game of the Burnham Plate.  We managed the whole game with only a few spots of rain although everyone was freezing!

Our team of Pam McNeil, Janice Endersby, Gill Pochetty and Hazel Baker came away with a resounding win of 20 shots to 8. Well played everyone! Thanks also to our cheerleaders Angela, Martin and Bob for their support!.
