Match Report Saturday 2nd September 2023 This is the last match of the B&D morning open triples league.It was against Fordingbridge Fire at Fordingbridge. The weather was fine and sunny. As Dawn Allen was still recovering from her operation and Neil was unable to play we called upon our reserve players again Nick Purkis and John James to take their place.The teams were; Team 1. Steve Allen, Colin Morris and Nick Purkis Team 2. John James, Cathy Burrows and Charles Burrows. Team 1 won the first end and managed to stay in front throughout the game but it was pretty close at times and by winning the last end we won the rink 13 shots to 9 shots. Team 2 . They had a close match for the first five ends but on the sixth end they got five shots and after that they romped home winning by a massive score of 37 shots to 13 shots. This win meant the Downton Dragons are now top of league in Division 5A and are eligible for promotion to Division 4. I would like to congratulate the team for their hard work throughout the season in achieving the success that they richly deserve. Steve Allen Downton Dragons Captain
