Sidmouth Over-60s teams played a number of games over the past week with various results, writes Bert Hague.
Sidmouth A travelled to Heavitree where they went down 26-9 on one rinks and 16-15 on the other.
The B team entertained Hemyock and they enjoyed a 16-9 and a 28-12 success. Well done, the B team.
Mixed fortunes for the C team as they journeyed to Madeira where one rink won 18-15, but the other went down 23-14.
The C team were back in action with a home match against Belmont and this time they enjoyed a brace of wins thanks to 15-12 and 18-11 score lines.

Each year Sidmouth hosts the Jubilee Trophy competition.
This is when we invite seven local teams and put out Sidmouth teams to oppose them.
The game is played as a drive with each team moving on after four ends. This year it was the Ottery team of Eric Richardson, Richard Bland, Brian Salter and Terry House that took our trophy away.
The best Sidmouth rink consisted of Mike Borst, Jim Brown, Bert Hague and Mike Daw.
