After missing out last year due to a lack of conven-
ient dates available East Hanningfield’s Charity
Triples in aid of “Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
made a comeback in 2015.
The eventual winners were the worthy Stony-
hill 1 club who won every one of their games on
the way to beating Woodlands in the final.
The day started with 20 teams split into 4
groups of 5 with each team playing each other in
their respective groups over 8 ends.
In Group A the qualifiers for the quarter finals Winners Jonathan East,
were Seaxe with 6 pts followed by 3G with 4pts & Andrea Phillbrick & Tony Ealham
a shot difference of +3 who just edged out 3 De-
grees who finished with a +1 shot difference.
In group B Stonyhill 1 finished top with a maximum
8pts followed by Woodlands on 5pts, In Group C
two teams both finished on 6pts with East Tilbury
1 edging out Outwood Common 1 for the top spot
by 27 shots to 16 & the qualifiers from Group D
were Outwood Common 2 & Burham with 7 & 6 pts
respectively.
In the Quarter Finals Seaxe were leading
Outwood Common 1 6-4 after six ends & picked
up a 3 on the seventh end & eventually ran out 9-
6 winners. Burham were leading Stonyhill 1 6-3
after 6 ends but dropped 4 shots over the last 2
Runners-up Doreen Thomson, ends to go down 6-7. East Tilbury ran out 18-4 win-
Nigel Reed & Peggy May ners against 3G & Woodlands beat Outwood Com-
mon 2 11-5.
Seaxe were drawn against Woodlands in the first semi – final and were leading 4-0 after 3
ends then lost 3 of the last 4 ends conceding 10 shots in the process, leaving Woodlands with a
10-6 win. The other semi followed the same way with East Tilbury 1 leading against Stonyhill 1 6-
0 after 3 ends but Stonyhill won 4 of the last 5 ends taking 10 shots to win 10-7.
In the Final Stonyhill 1, Andrea Phillbrick, Jonathon East & Tony
Ealham took on the Woodlands trio Doreen Thomson, Peggy May &
Nigel Reed. In a Close start to the game it was 4 -4 after 6 ends, Stony-
hill took a single on the next end then a 3 to lead 8-4 with one end re-
maining and took a four on the last as Woodlands attacked the end in a
desperate bid to get a four but all in vain to leave Stonyhill 1 the win-
ners.
A big thank you goes to all the players in helping to raise £520 for
such a good cause & also thanks for Debbie & Paul Cairns in the kitchen
From who also made a Spaghetti Bolognese lunch for everyone.
