Early League leaders Crewkerne had to endure harsh weather at Ilminster to gain all six points. Credit to both teams playing a full match in very challenging conditions. Merriott and South Petherton were able to postpone their match for the same night and reschedule to hopefully play in more favourable conditions.
This years cup will remain a one off, end of season finisher, with all five clubs attending, playing two triples rinks each. The format will be in two halves providing an opportunity for everyone to play against each other over 8 ends if daylight allows. To speed up the final, it was agreed that no mentoring will be allowed on the green. On the point of mentoring we agreed on two main principles, it should be as invisible and inaudible as possible to minimise potential inteference with bowlers in possession of the rink. We confirmed that the only expectation on hosting a league match is to offer a drink at the conclusion of the fixture. We confirmed our commitment to utiising the league for development, though we discussed criteria for inclusion we agreed to not make stipulations for participation, allowing each club to select according to their own development criteria. Happy Bowling everyone!
