04 Jun HUDDERSFIELD VS WEST RIDING

Round 3 of this years Yorkshire Veterans Inter-District Bowling League takes place this coming Friday, 9 June when Huddersfield take on West Yorkshire. West Yorkshire are the reigning champions from 2022 when Huddersfield were unusually ranked fourth. Huddersfield are currently top of the table with 89 points whilst West Riding have made an uncharacteristic start on 76, their Away team having lost at Wakefield. Nevertheless this coming week could well be the championship decider as early as Round 3. A game not to be missed.

The Home team are once again playing at Thongsbridge and hope to have a good following. The weather forecast is good and with no rain on the horizon the green will be very tricky.

Home team: A Bamforth, J Bloomer, B Gibson, S Haigh, P Kain, G Sigsworth, R Whitwam, A Wike.

Reserve Eddie Haigh, non-playing Captain F Greenwood and Manager David Armitage.

The away team are playing at The Harold Club, Huddersfield Road, Odsal BD12 0UD. Team as last match T Butterfield, M Gilbert (C), D Hewitt, P Hopkinson, D Pollard, T Poulter, G Senior, R Stopford.

Reserves J Burnett, Edwin Haigh and Manager Alan Sharpe.

Both teams are deserving of your support so please get round the green and cheer them on.
