Congratulations to the first County Merit Champions of 2023!
First on the board was James Williams (Wernley BC) who claimed the Under 25's trophy after an excellent Final against Owen Harrison (Boldmere St. Michaels BC). There was very little to separate the players throughout the game, with James eventually edging home 21-19.
The Junior Merit was played as a round robin event, and it was great to see two new players take part. The title was once again claimed by Warwickshire's unstoppable Junior force, Ciaran Andrews (Deers Leap), but he was made to think a bit in his opening game with debutant Jess Maskell (Tanworth In Arden).
Runner-up was Marty Wright (Brookhill) who bowled steadily all afternoon, Jess Maskell finished third, followed by Mason Jones (Tanworth In Arden) and Jake Bullock (Brookhill), who all contributed to an entertaining afternoon of bowling for the spectators present.
With a few more Juniors starting to play in the various divisions this year it looks as though the game is in safe hands with these talented youngsters - well played everyone!
With thanks to Water Orton BC for providing a very good playing surface, and to the County Chairman, Phil Ellett, for presenting the trophies.

A big 'thank you' from the County Committee to Coleshill Social Club for their excellent hosting of yesterdays Barlows Fire and Security County Championship fixture with North Staffordshire.
Warwickshire put up spirited performances at Coleshill and in the away game at the superb Clough Hall club in Kidsgrove, and were unlucky not to pick up more points over the two legs. Congratulations to all the players for their efforts on the green and their team spirit, and to the spectators who offered great support and enjoyed an afternoon of quality bowling.
The next fixture will be on Sunday 18th June, keep an eye on the County News for further information as it becomes available.
