Tony Alcock Trophy  (Over 60's Mixed Double Rink)

 

Sunday 26th June 2pm at BFGBC v Southport

 

We commenced our 2022 campaign in the National mixed double fours (Tony Alcock Trophy) against Southport BC with a win at home. 
Peter Rogers’  rink had a 1 shot win against D Lattimore’s rink. It was close all the way through with the Southport Skip getting good results with his last wood to change the result of several ends. A topsy-turvy game saw Peter’s rink win 2 threes and a four, and opposition the same! 
Gordon Niven’s rink had a much more sedate progression to a 12 shot win. They were 10-0 up after 6 ends and 18-1 after 11 ends. 2 late drops of 3 to lack of back woods trimmed the final lead to 12. 
However it was a very good evening for BFGBC with everyone contributing well. 
The next round sees us go to Appleby BC on Thursday afternoon 7th July. Lovely place for a ride out! See you there!
