Last weekend saw some of Northern England’s best Short Mat bowling talent gather together in York to battle it out for the 2024 Singles, Pairs, Triples and Fours champions titles. The event saw eight groups of 4 teams in each event, play against each other in a round robin format before moving into knockout stages starting with a knockout round ahead of the quarter finals.
After two long days of very high standard bowling, Stockport walked away with the County Shield, awarded for Stockport players winning the most points at the event, and Woodley Sports’ very own Peter Roberts won first place in Singles, Pairs and Triples!
Peter was joined by Steve Roberts in his Pairs victory and fellow Woodley Sports bowlers, Steve Roberts and Daz Lloyd in his Triples win. Woodley Sports also did incredibly well in the fours where Annabelle and Dave Almond from Woodley Sports were joined by Ben Holbrook from Poynton Sports and Tom Morgan from Great Moor to take the silver after a narrow defeat in the final late on Saturday evening.
We’re incredibly proud of our team mates and their fantastic achievements, well done!
