NINFIELD BOWLS: A catch up on the highs and lows of Ninfield Bowls club - July 28, Ninfield 67 Clive Vale 74, July 29, Ninfield 63 Hawkhurst 77 (league game), July 30, Ninfield 79 Hailsham 71, August 1, Ninfield 56 Ringmer 71 and finally August 2, Ninfield 133 - yes 133 - Herstmonceux 38. July 25 saw the club hold a fund day with two teams Roundheads and Cavaliers. Cavaliers always seem to win regardless of the members playing (so I am told)! Afterwards they had a much deserved BBQ.
