Thursday Thirsties beat Golfing Society 141 - 131

Looking for an improved performance after last weeks home defeat, the Golfing Society were again let down by a poor start.

Mr Wobbly (9) booked his place on next weeks squatters bench with four ducks, however Gibbo (23) made a welcome return to the team after his absence last week, but could not stop the pair dropping sixteen pins.

In an attempt to save the match, the big guns of the Accountant (28) and Crabbers (18) were sent on, but could only pull back six pins to leave the Golfing Society adrift by ten pins.

Could last weeks bottom scorer turn the match around? Unfortunately not, but the Leprachaun (32) did bounce back with the teams top score of the night, and with the Captain (21) were unlucky not to pull any pins.

Next weeks match is home to the White Hart Colts, Thursday 4/10 at 8.30pm.

Golfing Society dismounted by F Troop 129-139

Playing only their second match of the season after pulling out of last weeks match, the Golfing Society were hoping for a repeat of their victory in their last home match.

However, the Golfing Society started slowly with the Leprachaun (8) and Mr Wobbly (20) and found themselves twenty nine pins down against the newly promoted F Troop.

In an attempt to pull things around, the Capt (27) and the yet again top scoring Accountant (32) came on, and managed to pull back 19 pins, to leave the Golfing Society just ten pins down going into the final pairing.

Crabbers (26) and holiday mood Ned (16) could only draw with their opponents, and the match was lost by ten pins.

Next weeks match is on Thursday at the Wheatsheaf against the Thursday Thirsties.

Golfing Society punish Wot-U-Wots 149 - 128

Having avoided relegation last season by the slimest of margins, the Golfing Society were determined to win their first match of the season, and so it was as the Golfing Society cruised to victory by 21 pins.

The Leprachaun (25) and Gibbo (29) held their opponents to 54 pins apiece, to give the Golfing Society a chance to pull some pins with their experienced middle pairing.

Crabbers (18) and the top scoring Accountant (39) pulled a potentially match winning 24 pins to give the final home pair an easy ride to victory.

However despite a comfortable score from Ned (31), the Captain (7) struggled to find any form and they lost three pins but nethertheless were in the end comfortable winners.

Next weeks match is cancelled as the captain is on holiday and with others unavailable the match will be played later in the season.

The next match will be at home against newly promoted F Troop, 8.30pm start at the rugby club.
