6 Cambridgeshire Win Back
Cambridgeshire Win Back
the White Rose Shield
the White Rose Shield
This annual event was again a success with great bowls and the
chance to meet up with old friends. North Yorkshire brought back
the trophy having won it last year thinking that they would be tak-
ing it home with them once again. Cambridgeshire, however,
had different ideas and proved it by winning 45 points to 27 with
a shot difference of 308 to 238.
The Cambridgeshire team were joined by the following
players from Suffolk and Hertfordshire - Pam Fayers, John
Paddy, Margaret Hare, Alan Hare, Richard Paddy and Mary
Paddy.
The second day of the weekend was run as a Drive with
70 players competing. The winner for Cambridgeshire was
Kevin Stanford with 40 shots and for North Yorkshire Mike Jones
who had 33 shots. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the weekend including a carvery meal on
the Saturday evening at The Wheel and are looking forward to next year when North Yorkshire
will be the hosts.

Cambridgeshire Championships
Twelve months on from one of the most successful years for mem-
bers in the county championships, Doddington dominate once
again this year by not only defending the pairs, triples and fours
crowns but also adding the Singles silverware to the records. This
year all four disciplines were played over two weekends in July.
A good representation from Doddington gave the club every
chance of success. The singles started the campaign and by
semi-final stage three members battled it out for the title. B Har-
rison was defeated by Walpole Highways J Russell & L White lost
to J Peters. Last year’s runner up (J Peters) then went that one
step further by winning the final against J Russell after a close
final.
The Fours followed straight after and was organised on a
league basis due to the number of teams involved. After all games
were played J Saunders, B Harrison, R Elmore & J Peters came
out on top winning all games.
