Report
On rink two, the four of Mike Lyons, Phil Huntley, Chris Beale, and Roger Venn had a convincing win over W Saunders, P. Goring, P. Silverthorne, and Mike O’Dwyer running out 13-24 winners.
On rink four, it was a very bad day at the office for Frank Trepleton, Graham Smith, Richie Murphy, and Dave Hill who never got to grips with their rink at all and lost 12-30 to D. Williams, H. Jenkins, N. Ford, and R. Jenkins.
On rink five, the Mister Men’s rink of Sean Kenvyn, Nick Harris, Roger Simms, and Andrew Goodwin were involved in a close battle with A. Roberts, Mike Cleaver, N. Gooding, and M. Brooks. Pontymister led for most of the game, but dropped a “three” and “two” on the last two ends to go down 18-22.
Finally on rink six, Pontymister’s Dave Bowd, Sid Phillips, Lloyd Turnbull, and skipper Ronnie Morgan were involved in a tight battle against Luke Jones, S. Manley, Kevin Jones, and C. Jones, eventually going down 18-21.
