FRIENDS OF WEST SUSSEX SUMMER GAMES
Friends of West Sussex played their home match against Surrey at Guildford, this was due to our eviction from Westergate. We would like to thank Surrey for allowing us to hire their facilities.
The final result was a win for West Sussex by 27 points to 21 and by 359 shots to 311.
The best team was again the pair of Wendy Smith and Richard Bourne with the triple of Sue Plassing, Joy Reynolds and Sonia Burden. This time Wendy & Richard were best pair and Sue, Joy & Sonia made it a full house with being the best triple.
Well done to all who have participated this summer, we have remained unbeaten in our two games.
Result:
02-Dec-2023: Lost to Hampshire at Home 17 (162) – 23 (195). 09-Dec-2023: Beat Kent at home 21 (177) – 19 (183).
The “A” Team Trials held at Westergate on 23rd March were well supported with members of last year’s squad as well as a lot of new faces. I would like to thank all those who participated on that day. As yet myself and selectors Dean Rundle and Paul Davies have not had a meeting to choose the squad as we are waiting to see the development regarding a new venue. Hopefully we will be able to publicise the squad for 2024/25 towards the end of April. We will be having two squad days held at Fittleworth Village Hall on 24th August and 14th September.
B-Team Result:
The B Team had a successful final day at Westergate winning against London who had borrowed two of our players. London have just one team so it contains players of all abilities.
Some very good bowling under pressure from the opposition, the triples gained all 8 points, Barbara Weir's four were successful in both of their games.
The B Team has shown fantastic team spirit in all of their matches this season, supporting all and making sure newer players were put at ease.
Well done !
