On the up

Need a good result this evening in our second Division 3 Men's Fours match away to Somersham B.  First time I've played here. Another hard to find village green, down the end of a narrow track. They ended mid-table last year, so anticipating a struggle.

Bit of a surprise we're leading on all three rinks at the halfway stage. Our confidence increases. End up winning comfortably. All seven points to us! That will lift us from the bottom of the league table.

I started well, playing lead. Upright stance enabling me to get the line easily, but still struggling with length. Getting at least one of my two bowls into the head. Became more erratic as the evening wore on and concentration waned. Must do better tomorrow evening. My first County competition match of the year, the Two Bowls Singles. Playing away at Sawtry.

Here are the scorecards from this evening and a satellite image of Somersham Bowls Club.
