PROVINCIAL BOWLS FINALS 2023

The Province held its annual Crown Green Bowls finals day at St Michael’s on Wyre Bowling Club with GB National President Mark and Maxine Conroy in attendance.  Mark was playing for his Circle Burnley.  Four circles had battled through earlier rounds to make to the semi finals.  Accrington played local rivals Burnley and Preston 14 played their local rivals Garstang.  Accrington and Preston made in to the final with Preston 14 running out the eventually winners. Just as the last bowl was sent down the heavens opened so the trophy had to be presented in the pub by Provincial President Mike O’ Malley to Team Captain Paul Garstang. A damp Provincial group enjoyed a good meal organised by Lawrence and Barbara Turner of Garstang Circle. A good time was had by all.
