…where the league season has started. In the Federation County league the Crabs were at home to Sheringham Morley and started off the season with a very good 7 – 2 win. The following week however they could not keep up the good work and on a green new to most of the players, Swanton Morley, they crashed to a 0 – 9 defeat. The Crows playing away at Aylsham for their first game had a very close encounter which they just lost 4 – 5. The next game at home to Blakeney saw a reversal of fortunes however and an excellent 5 – 4 win. The Wednesday evening team in the Hansells County League played at home against Reepham Nomads and managed a very good 4 – 1 win. This against the team that finished last season second in the league only one point the behind the eventual winners R G Carter .A’. The next game away to County Arts ‘B’ in Norwich however was a different story. The team had some difficulty getting to grips with the running of the green, and despite two rinks each coming within a few shots of their opponents the overall result was a 0 – 5 defeat. The NANSA League game due to be played had to be cancelled as unfortunately the opposition were unable to raise a team. As you will gather the scoring system is different for the various leagues, but I will not go into detail about that as it’s the final result that matters. Vice President Keith held another well supported Spoon Drive on a vacant Saturday. It’s good to see members old and new joining in these friendly competitions. On Friday 23rd May the club is involved in the Lord Fermoy Cup. This competition is one where one rink of four men play at home and another rink of four play away on the opponents green. The opposition in this case being Martham BC. Both rinks play 21 ends and it is the aggregate score over the two games that decides the winner. In what is an amazing coincidence the ladies of the club also meet Martham BC in their own version of a similar competition The Webb Trophy. They will be playing their games on Wednesday 28th May in the afternoon. In another competition on Friday 30th May the club have been drawn away to Aylsham BC in the Bales Cup. Both teams play 3 rinks of men, the overall number of shots scored decides the winner. This is the county Club Championship in which historically the club has a good record, but not I have to say in recent years. So Captain Graham will be looking to his team to progress this year albeit that the team is playing away. In yet another county competition the club will be at home on Sunday 1st June against Aldiss Park BC in the Jermy Cup. This is a mixed competition, two men and two ladies in each of three rinks. The overall shots scored again decide the winner.
As usual the morning club roll ups continue and I remind you that the free Friday evenings on the green are available for anyone who would like to come along and try out the game. Remember “Don’t Say No Before You Have Had a Go”.
And so to that list of the matches being played on the green that you may wish to come and watch, and support.
