*** Well done to both Anne and Luke – members of both Manor Park and Gamesley Bowling Clubs ***

The annual West Heaton Open Bowling Competition sponsored by Marston Breweries returned for the first time since Covid and a strong field enjoyed an enjoyable and competitive afternoon.

Winners were a Grandma and Grandson team from Gamesley Bowling, Anne Donoghue and Luke Jones, while the runners up were Ian Cameron and Paul Cardew from Houldsworth Working Men’s Club in Reddish. Prize money was part from Marston’s sponsorship and part from entrance fees with the winning pair received £260, runners up £120, £60 to the semifinalists and £30 to the quarterfinalists. Prizes were presented by West Heaton’s Immediate Past President Jo Taylor in the absence through holiday of current President Jane Philpott.

Thanks to Eddie Tasker for organising and his group of helpers from West Heaton.
