Thornton Cleveleys Mens Bowling League
Doubles Competition Sponsored by

The Competition took place at Norbreck Bowling & Tennis club on August 10th. Gale force winds made conditions very difficult, but all competitors produced some quality bowling. Grenville Prime & Darren Cooke representing Blackpool subs, belied their 4th division status and battled their way to the Final, only to lose out to Eric Glen & Trevor Burrows of Carleton, who bowled superbly to register a 21 - 9 win. Chairman of the league Mike Worthington presented the trophy and £270 to the winning pair, and £150 to the runners up.
