However, Merv Pack comfortably beat John Thorogood then squeezed past Dave Toynton 21–20 to become the new leader.

Dave was fortunate to hang onto to his place in the top division following the solitary point he took from John in a 16-16 draw.

Division Two saw Ray Loughran edge past Pete Sharman and Bill Yuill to get promoted.

Pete won by two against Bill, who now goes down.

Moving up from Division Three is Graham Taylor, who is thoroughly enjoying his first season on grass with yet another promotion after beating Ted Bloodworth and Trevor Dunnington.

Janet Loughran won two close games in Division Four to gain promotion and Gordon Neal won both his games by one to move into Division Four.

It will be interesting to see how new member Helen Holroyd fares this week in her debut after joining Forbes Road Bowls Club recently.

Bowlers, novice or experienced, interested in joining the league should contact any member of the club.
