Merrow’s latest mid-week friendly was hosted by Puttenham on Wednesday, 6th June.

The weather gods were smiling on us as the match of three triples got under way. Initially, both sides had problems reading the green, with even the home side suffering.

Despite Merrow’s best efforts, we lost on two of the three rinks, with Puttenham winning by 53-41. However, congratulations to our top rink of Lorna, Len, and David E, our only winners.

Sadly, one of Puttenham’s bowlers was taken ill towards the end of the match and was treated on the green by a team of paramedics. I’m sure all Merrow players join me in wishing him a speedy recovery.

Our afternoon was rounded off with a delicious tea, with scrumptious home-made cakes.

Merrow entertain Puttenham on 14th August and we look forward to a good match.
