Air Ambulance Gala 2015

10/4/2015

 
Rugby Thornfield Indoor Bowls Club held their final charity gala of the 2014/5 season. A full compliment of 16 teams took to the carpet to raise funds for the Warwickshire & Northamptonshire Air Ambulance. Bowls Daventry, an organisation made up of the various bowls groups in Daventry (indoor, outdoor, shortmat and disabled bowls) brought three teams of their own and some additional items to be auctioned (see later for how you can get an EBA International blazer and a signed Bowls England Commonwealth Games shirt).

A perfect game saw “Fly by Night” take the early lead, a point clear of “Speckled Hen” and “Whatever” in joint second. In joint fourth were “Terrible 4”, “Dambusters” and “Vikings”. Heading into the half-time break “Fly by Night” again registered a perfect game. “Whatever” were in second place with “The Canaries” and “Past & Present” joint third, “Noname” completed the top five.

Fully refreshed “Fly by Night” dropped their first points of the evening but still held a one point lead over second place “Whatever”, who in turn were a point clear of “Past & Present”. Joint fourth was held by “The Canaries” and “Daffy Ducks”. “Fly by Night” (Julia Scott, Sandy Boulton, Roy Scott and Ron Boulton) registered their third clean sweep to finish four points clear of “Past & Present” in second place. “Whatever” somehow ended in the top three despite not scoring a single point in their last game, joint fourth were “Noname”, “Middle Newbold” and “The Canaries”. Special mention goes to last place “Volunteers” (Barry & Judy Gardner, Gordon Chamberlain and Barry Sheasby), as the name suggests the team consisted largely of Air Ambulance volunteers.

Bowls Daventry are currently auctioning a Bowls England shirt from the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, signed by the team. Also the EBA (English Bowls Association) International Blue Blazer awarded to Stuart Thomas in 2000. All money raised will be going to the Air Ambulance, both currently have bids of £100 (as of 9th April). To place a bid please email [email protected] with your details and the amount you wish to bid. Bowls Daventry is an organisation made up of the various bowls groups within Daventry to promote bowls within Daventry and hopefully reverse the trend of falling numbers of participants.
