Jill Bishop has put Sidmouth Bowling Club on the map yet again, writes Susie Bonnell.

Last Friday Jill was in action at Sidmouth in the first round of a Devon County Indoor Bowling Association competition, aptly named ‘Champion of Champions’.

This is a competition played between all Devon Club champions from the previous indoor season.

Jill was up against Sue Harriott from Madeira Bowls Club - so often a friend and ally for Jill on the rinks for Devon County games.

It was a very close fought match, but Jill came out the winner with a final score of 21-19.

Jill now goes on to the next round to play Kathy Holmes from Plymouth and, of course, Sidmouth Bowls Club members will be routing for her.
