Russ (our captain) saved the day, shooting out his opponents boule with the last shot of the match.  Had he missed, we would have walked away with no points.

Black Cats win derby


The City of Norwich Winter League kicked off on Sunday.  The two Bressingham teams were drawn against each other - Dees & Ells versus Black Cats.

It didn't start too well for us (Black Cats) as we lost the triples fairly quickly.  In the second round of games I was trailing 9-2 in the singles against Les but fortunes then changed and I clawed (pun intended) my way back to win.  Meanwhile Pat & Jenny put up a good display in the pairs.  Jenny produced a master stroke with her last boule in an exciting last end to win the match.

It is worth noting that in this league that points are awarded for games won and not for the win.  So teams teams that lose 2-1 still score one point.


Next matches 17th November - Dees & Ells v Hedonists, Bob Carter Center v Black Cats  (please note the change of venue).  Go here for other results and league tables... http://norwichpetanque.wordpress.com/
