  • Spalding Indoor Bowls Club’s B side lost by 79 shots to 106 against Long Sutton in Lincolnshire League Division Two – but the four match points they received were enough to stave off relegation.

It was a close game at half way, but Long Sutton got stronger as the game went on and took the victory.

Spalding’s best winning rink was M Sillett, D Groves, D Amess and G West, with a new captain on the day in Tom Bell.
