Sidmouth ladies set up Top Club tie with Honiton

It’s always a big day on the indoor calendar when the Sidmouth ladies begin their quest in the National Top Club competition, writes Susie Bonnell.
This year’s first round was no exception - when the ladies met their opponents, South Hams, in the Top Club last Sunday.
With five disciplines to be played, some at home and some away, it’s a tense time waiting for the final results to be aggregated and a winner decided upon. The two-wood singles, the pairs and the rinks were contested at Sidmouth, with the triples and four-wood singles played at South Hams.
It was very nip and tuck as the last bowls were sent rolling up the rink, but Sidmouth succeeded in winning three of the five disciplines, assuring them of a place in the next round.
They will now meet Honiton on Sunday, January 29, with the same format (three teams at home and two away).
