Ladywell went down narrowly to West Beckenham in a friendly match on Tuesday 22nd June by an overall score of 51-43.
The overcast but dry conditions were perfect for an afternoon of bowls as Ladywell were welcomed to West Beckenham Bowling Club and there were close games on all three rinks. In fact, at the break after nine ends, Ladywell were up on one rink, West Beckenham were up on one and the third one was tied.
But after the break, the West Beckenham triples pulled away on two of the rinks and despite fight-backs from Ladywell in both matches, the final scores were 15-19 and 13-19, with the third rink going Ladywell's way by 15 points to 13.
It was a good afternoon's bowls and it great to meet up with old friends after more than a year with no competitive matches. And Ladywell will be looking for revenge in the return match on 7th August.
