Spalding Indoor Bowls Club were in dominant form at the Lincolnshire under-18 singles play-offs over the weekend.
Amazingly, Spalding boasted ten of the 18 teenage talents at Horncastle – and ended up with all four finalists.
Jack Wells and Max Butters were playing in their first competition, alongside the more experienced Spalding juniors of Jonathan Field, Nathan Puttrell, Harry Mycock, Matthew Ford, Bailey Day, T-ja Spiller, James Cherry and under 18 England international, Danielle Wild.
All of the juniors conducted themselves well and were a credit to the club.
In the junior under-18 singles final, Spiller will face Cherry, while in the senior under-18 singles final it will be Mycock against Wild.
Both finals will be played at Boston, with all the other county finals, on April 28.
