Results & Reports

May 13th :  We began our Bucks Cup campaign against Cheddington. Under the usual format of 2 triples at Home and 2 Away, we got off to a very encouraging start, winning 3 of the 4 games with just a narrow defeat in the other. The final shot tally was 82 - 48 and under the points scoring system it was 12 - 2 in our favour. 

Well bowled everyone.

 

 

May 9th : The first leg of the Jubilee Cup fixture against old rivals Chesham was played on their green. After 9 ends across the five triples, Chesham led by 2 shots. A welcome cup of tea/coffee was taken but the short break did us no favours. The ensuing 3 ends saw Chesham take 28 shots to our 9 and things didn't improve for us at all, resulting in Chesham taking a 46 shot advantage into the 2nd leg at Princes Risborough on June 28th. The final score was 107 - 61 to the home team. Our best triple was Stuart Ray, Lorraine Dare and Del Behenna, who managed a 16 - 16 draw.

 

 

May 7th:  Our second Mid Bucks League fixture saw Waddesdon pay us a visit. With three of our five triples all recording wins by 10 shots, we picked up a welcome 8 points to 2 victory. The overall shot tally was 91 - 74.

Our third game will be at Aylesbury Town on Thursday 2nd July.

 

 

May 2nd : A new fixture on the card saw Broadway Bowls Club (Chesham) pay us a visit, the first of many we hope. Good bowling and close games on all five rinks, but Broadway just prevailed, taking the match by 83 shots to 75. Our best triple was Stuart Ray, Clive Walters and Ray Rouse who carded a 23 - 12 win. We look forward to the return fixture in August.

 

 

May 1st : Our ladies welcomed two triples from Thame for their first friendly of the year, but the six visitors proved too strong on the day aynd went home very pleased with a win by 58 shots to 22.

 

 

 April 30th : Our Mid Bucks League campaign got off to a poor start when old adversaries Long Crendon were our visitors. They got off to a good start and led the match throughout, taking 8 1/2 points to 1 1/2 points by winning 3 rinks, drawing 1 and losing 1. Our winning triple were Stuart Ray, Alan Butler and Ray Rouse with an 18 - 13 win.

 

 

April 29th: Amersham were our third visitors of the season and good bowling was enjoyed by all five triples. It was Princes Risborough who came out on top with a comfortable 93 shots to 56 win. Top triple on rink 2 was Jeanette Allnutt, Graham Gayler and Tony Liggins. After being 8 - 9 down through 11 ends, they proceeded to take 22 shots without reply over the final 7 ends to run out 30 - 9 winners!  Graham was playing his first game for the Club, so a great introduction for him.

 

 

April 26th : Having scored a comfortable victory just four days ago, our squad were hoping to repeat the dose when 5 triples from Aylesbury Town paid us a visit. The boys from the County Town, however, had read a different script and we suffered a comfortable defeat instead, going down 74 shots to 103. Two of our triples did finish ahead, the best of those being Stuart Ray, Keith Puddephatt and Mick Bailey who won 23 - 13. So pleasing to see that Mick is clearly an octogenarian in great heart.

 

 

April 22nd: Our good friends from Thame popped over the border on another lovely Spring afternoon. We were not so kind to them as the weather was however, and our five triples recorded a win by 108 shots to 53. Top of the shop were Jeanette Allnutt, Brendan McGinty and Mick Bailey with a 29 - 3 victory.

 

 April 19th :Perfect weather, a fine Spring day, just what we wanted for our opening fixture of 2026 when we made our annual visit to Gerrards Cross. Unfortunately the result was less enjoyable, the home team taking 4 of the 5 triples games to score an 86 - 50 shot win. Our only successful trio was Rupert Aries, Keith Puddephatt and Captain Tony Liggins, who scrambled home by 14 - 11 in a tight match. A good day out all the same and we must wait until mid August to try and take our revenge when GX visit us.
