Golfing Society duck out against Odds & Ends 120 - 139

Having to play two matches in one night meant having to have an early start against the Odds & Ends. This clearly was not to the Golfing Society's liking, and as a result they "scored" ten ducks and lost the match by nineteen pins.

With Gibbo on vacation, messrs Wibbly and Wobbly also unavailable, the team was reshuffled to include the returning Vernon Pearce.

Crabbers (19) and the Capt (15) got the home side off to a shakey start by losing twenty two pins, leaving it all to be done by the remaining home side pairings.

The Accountant (25) and the Builder (24) top scored for the Golfing Society pulled a magnificent twenty six pins back in reply, giving the home side a sniff of victory by leading by four pins.

Unfortunately, the normally reliable pairing of the Leprachaun (22) and Ned (15) were unable to maintain the momentum, and crashed by twenty three pins to consign the Golfing Society to their fourth defeat of the season.

Next weeks match is away to the Skuttlers on Wednesday when the Golfing Society will be looking to continue with their away winning form.
