Horsham Bowling Club was set up for three away games to play during the week. The first was at St. Francis on Wednesday, but was disrupted by rain and so was sadly abandoned after just 4 ends.
The following day the weather was fine and a team of 5 triples headed up to Ewhurst for a friendly mixed game. Losing only one rink, Horsham won 90-61, top rink was skipped by Kelly McCartney and aided by Alison Hilton-Childs & Dave Packham to a 27-10 win.
Saturday involved a trip to the coast for a 5 mixed rink encounter with East Preston & Kingston. This was quite a close game against good South Coast players. Horsham won 2 rinks, but lost 3 rinks, with a final tally of 89-95, so a close loss. Top rink for Horsham went to Martin Jolliffe, Jules Packham, Irene Gettins and Dave Marden, scoring 25-16.
The week finished at home, with a visiting team from Pippbrook, Dorking. Four teams started out, but rain kept intervening, however they gamely completed 18 ends. Totting up the score sheets, with two ends won and two lost, the result was again close, but Horsham lost 63-66! Well done teams. Top rink for Horsham, contained Barbara Meyer, Sally Gardner and skip Martin Gardner, with a score of 16-12.
