The Top Club knockout match was held at Old Coulsdon on a very hot afternoon.

The match consists of 4 disciplines singles, pairs, triples and  rinks.

The ladies played extremely well on a difficult green and won on 2 rinks and lost on 2 but sadly the points difference was not in our favour with an overall score Bookham 55 to Old Coulsdon 73.

The ladies all played brilliantly and should be very proud of their achievements by reaching the semi final of this Bowls England competition. Bookham did not make it a walkover for Old Coulsdon.

Our best rink was Susan Mullins, Valerie Wilkins, Lesley Searle and Jo Shaw Bookham 19 to O C 15.
