Saturday 9th November saw the Annual Greater Manchester Triples Championship/National Qualifier take place at Etherow Indoor Bowling Centre. The day was well supported and everyone reported enjoying the day but there could only be one winner and of course last year’s team were planning to do all they could to retain their title!
The semi-finals saw S. Roberts, M. Anderson and C. Cooper take a win from A. Roberts, W. Wilkinson and E. Pearce to secure their place in the finals, meanwhile P. Norbury, A. Norbury and P. Thompson were defeated by last year’s winners P. Roberts, D. Lloyd and A. Brideaux.
The final was hard fought but ultimately Peter Roberts, Darren Lloyd and Angharad Brideaux came out on top and retained their trophy for another year. The three will compete in the nationals representing Greater Manchester in April at Melton & District Indoor Bowls Club.
