Two sections of 8 teams in each played successive games across the four mats, with the 29
overall winner being the foursome who scored the most points, with shots then splitting
any teams on equal points. All the wonderful catering on the day was organised by the Hos-
pice Ladies, as was the raffle. Broadclyst also stage other events for different charities but this
one has been run for the hospice over several years.
After a full day’s play the winners were Val Norman (Abbotskerswell), Ted Deeley (Broad-
clyst), Bob Weafer (Winkleigh) and Robbie Gayton (Exeter Nomads), with Broadclyst player Ted
Deeley being awarded the Broadclyst Shield, with replica trophies going to the other players. They
were the only unbeaten team on the day, winning their section with 8 points and a plus of 19 shots.
In the other section the winners were Dudley Cole, Jean Petherick, Brab Hollowes and Derek Ho-
nywell, with 6 points and a plus of 10 shots.

MORWENSTOWE 3 BOWL TRIPLES
MORWENSTOWE 3 BOWL TRIPLES

On a day which we bemoaned was
cold and wet we were in fact very
lucky in Devon as it seemed the rest
of the country was covered in deep
snow and people had spent the night
on the M25 unable to move.
This was my second event in
Devon and once again I had an up
and down game but my playing part-
ners, John Horsham & Lorraine Axtell
played very consistently and we won
the event.
Over £500 was raised for the
Stratton Cottage Hospital refurb. This
Charity event was started in 1990 and
has raised huge amounts of money
for a variety of Charitable causes.
