It was fun to be a spectator at the Conwy County Bowling Festival events that were held on our green this week. But, are Shan and Ann looking a little bit guilty? The answer is in the photo below!
Cushion the Blow
Guys versus Gals
On Thursday the annual Guys versus Gals competition was played. Organisers Gay and John P gee’d up their respective sides but tried to keep the competition to games on the green rather than amongst the players waiting on the sidelines!
It was honours even at the end of the competition with a 4:4 Draw. However, taking the aggregate totals into consideration, the guys just took the Shield by only 10-points. Well played everyone. Next year ………

Hosting Day 2
The second of the three days of hosting some of the Conwy Bowling Festival qualifiers was held at Vardre Deganwy crown green yesterday. The successful qualifiers will now play in the finals day later this week. Congratulations again to all the bowlers.
We were also in great crown green bowling company as Callum Wraight, the Shropshire bowler who won the BCGBA 2022 Senior Individual Merit Title, was one of the day’s competitors. Yes – he did get through to the finals.

Hosting Conwy Bowls Festival
Yesterday was Day-One of three-days of competition qualifiers that are being held at the Vardre Deganwy crown green. These are just part of all the events taking place throughout the week in the Conwy Bowls Festival.
There were lots of spectators and all the bowlers fought hard to win one of the 8-qualifying places to compete in the final day of the competition later this week. Congratulations to all.
A Slice of the Best Beats the Rest
6-Entries for the Great Bowling Bake Off yesterday meant a lot of eating for the Judges. Once the Judges could be prised away from gorging on cake, focus turned to the Spider Competition (won by Keith) followed by the round-robin bowling contest (won by Sean and Clarice).
And the Winner was:
