Skittles Tournament

The annual Skittles Tournament between Guildford Circle and their arch rivals for the Barry Dale Cup, Kingston Circle, was held on September 14th at St Clements, Ewell. The nominal sum of £10.00 secured a fish supper with all the trimmings. However, as St Clements has no bar, combatants were requested to bring their own drinks to sustain them through the evening. Kick off, or should I say 'bowl off', commenced at 7.30 pm and both teams fought keenly for the prized cup named after Guildfords past President and Province 19's past Provincial President. 

To cut a long story short, Guildford looked to have the upper hand from the outset and eventually won the keenly contested three round competition by 3 rounds to 0 with a score of 283 points to 234. This was not surprising as two of the Guildford competitors, Tina and Jackie, were the highest scorers with a total of 21 points each. The spirit of the evening was further enhanced by the participation of Barbara Dale and her family. See below photos recording all the action on the night!
