In a busy weekend that saw three Club Championships decided, first up was the Men's Triples. The previous weekend had seen the field bought down to the four semi finalists who started proceedings early on Saturday.

One semi final pitted the the unbeaten team from qualifying, Steve Kirwan, Paul Griffths & Graham Farley against a Rex Bell, Ross Hopewell & Paul Jerrom combination. Proof that in bowls each day is different, saw the Bell combination break out early and have a big 10-1 lead on the board before the Kirwan combination started to come back at them. But with ends running out the Bell combination held on for a good win.
The second semi-final was between Scott Harrison, Terry Barrett & Artem Chesnokov and John James, Odie Walter & Allan Moyle. This semi final was a very tight match with the key break the 3 points scored by the James combination in 12th end to go out to a 4 point lead with 3 ends to play. Final score 12-11.

The final saw the the Bell combination again take an early 5-1 lead, but the the James combination got into their work, taking 6 of the next 7 ends to lead 12 -6 at the 12th end and run out eventual winners 15-9.
Great to see a good mix of both senior and junior bowlers contesting hard in the final stages for this event.
