Hazel played very well in the Colwyn & Llandudno Merits for our ‘B’ Team yesterday at St. Asaph, winning a great match in the 1st round but just losing out in the 2nd. But what’s this? Hazel and David Leech both took part in the League Merits yesterday but why is he looking so pink? Meanwhile, at Craig y Don, David Jones represented our ‘A’ Team in the Merits.
Due to the upsurge in covid this week, the Club has decided not to send representatives to the following Merits/Competitions:
Our Colwyn & Llandudno League Merits at Craig y Don ‘A’ Team representative David Jones will participate tomorrow (Sunday); and our ‘B’ Team representative Hazel will participate in the Merits at St. Asaph. The Ladies Friendly at Rhos on Sea is still on for Monday afternoon.
TAKE A TEST PLEASE PEOPLE. If you test positive, just stay at home and get well. More updates to be added here (if there are any).
As promised, just Click Here for photos from Mary Hughes’ President’s Day held last Sunday 3rd September.
With the final games of the Colwyn and Llandudno League played on Wednesday night 6th September, our ‘B’ Team was at Home.
Meanwhile, the ‘A’ Team just missed out on a draw or a win but finished comfortably in 5th position in the ‘A’ Division. A real achievement in the Team’s first year after returning to that Division.
Yesterday was the Clwydian Ladies Merits and League 2023 Trophy Awards Day at Rhyl, and the last game of the season for the Colwyn and Llandudno League.
Awards received by Vardre Deganwy Clwydian Ladies Team and Individuals at the event in Rhyl were:

Our fabulous ‘B’ Team won the Clywdian League Division ‘C’ Title yesterday, and they did it with a very good 7:5 Away win, when they just needed 3-game wins to secure the Title. They finished 12-points ahead of the 2nd placed team. Congratulations to all.
Our ‘C’ Team achieved something that is perhaps quite rare, they reached exactly the same position in 2023 as they did in 2022 – their very first year; with exactly the same number of wins; and, exactly the same number of points; and, with exactly the same averages aggregate.
Our ‘A’ Team still has another match to play and that will be Away next Tuesday. However, their place in the ‘A’ Division is already assured again for the fifth consecutive year.

No, not a Painting Competition, sorry to disappoint, but a new competition was invented on our green on Sunday – the Pointing Competition. Whilst Kath and Steve hold back before showing their techniques to the others, Rog, Hazel, JohnF and Bunty go straight in with their best ones. Whilst JohnF, Hazel and Rog go for the single finger style, Bunty wades in with a strong two-hander, i.e. a single finger-point on one hand but also using a prop (the marker board) in the other.
The sun shone and members turned out in their dozens on President’s Day to watch the final of the Hornby Cup and to participate in the Triples Competition (the Boys versus the Girls). The Hornby Cup was won by Ian Wilson 21:20 with Diane Lea as the Runner-Up. The Triples Competition was won by the Boys 2½:1½.
There will be a few photos of the day on the Events page in the next couple of days. (Hornby Cup photos below courtesy of Elaine Beech).
Mary Hughes is our President and today is the Vardre Deganwy Bowling Club President’s Day, starting at 12:30pm.

Buffet type refreshments will be provided by the Club so members can relax and compete.
