Welcome to the Malpas Seniors Bowling League Results site.
This is an over 60's afternoon bowling league with most league matches played on Wednesday afternoons at 2pm.
This season we are trialling a different bowling format. We will have 3 Divisions of 8 teams and we will play a mix of league singles and league doubles matches. We will start the season on 3rd April with standard singles matches for 7 weeks. Week 8 is reserved for the Colin Paxton 1 qualifier (see below). The next 7 weeks will be the reverse fixtures for the singles followed by the Colin Paxton 2 qualifier.
Then, starting on the 24th July we will have 7 weeks of team doubles matches. These will either be home OR away depending on how the computer draws the fixtures.
There will be no reverse fixtures.
There will be NO Thursday knock-out doubles this year. The league doubles matches will compete for the trophies usually awarded for knock out doubles. If you want to see this pictorially it is under the link called 2024 Format or you can click here.
In addition to the above league matches there are 3 individual competitions. The Colin Paxton, mentioned above, which is a draw for partners doubles competition and
The Ann Guinney Cup - Individual Singles (Ladies).
The Dick Allen Cup - Individual Singles (Gents).
Speak to your Captain for more information or check out the Competitions information page.
Important Dates:
Wed 22nd May 10:00
The first qualifying round for the Colin Paxton Trophy will be held at Farndon BC on the 22nd May starting at 10:00am. Entry is open to anyone registered to play in this League. It is usually a very enjoyable day and if you have never entered before you are encouraged to come along and try it. It is a draw-for-partners mixed doubles unless we run out of either ladies or gents. You don't have to enter in advance, just turn up on the day, although we would ask prospective competitiors to arrive 20-30 minutes before the start time to allow for the draw. Entry fee is still £1 per person. Where else can you get a day's entertainment for £1?
Bear in mind that semi-finals and the final are held on Finals Day on 18th Sept. so competitors should ensure they will be available on that date - just in case you get through!
Latest information:
Sat 13th Apr
A few people are already looking ahead to the doubles part of the season and have been asking about fixtures. We have therefore asked the computer to do its thing and the doubles fixtures have now been produced. There will be no need for morning matches during the doubles part of the season as Garden Village B and Garden Village C are going to share the green for their home matches with each match having 2 jacks on the green simultaneously. Matches will start at 2pm and the away team will have the jack as normal.

Can any home team captains who are rearranging postponed matches, please let the League Secretary know as soon as you have a new date.
Thankyou.
