Isle of Man County Crown Green Bowling Association

The Ladies Association held Top Lady at Nobles Bowling Club on Sunday 19th May. 32 of the island’s Top Ladies were invited to play and the weather was scorching. Moore eased her way to the final where she met Janet Monk. Monk was almost taken out by her teammate Madison McMullan in the earlier stages with a hard fought effort which Monk won 21-17.

Quarter Final stages saw Jenny Moore take on last year’s winner Clare Cooper, with Moore progressing on to the next stage 21-16. Fiona Kennish secured her semi final spot 21-18 against Margaret Tasker. Debbie Leece was on top form on the day moving forward 21-10 against Sue Collier and Janet Monk ended all chances of an all South Ramsey final winning 21-16 against Gill Dixon. The Semi stage saw Moore end teammate Kennish’s chances 21-7. Monk had a tough game 21-19 to end Leece’s final chance. 

The final was enjoyed by lots of spectators enjoying the afternoon of sunshine. Janet Monk took control of the game on her favorite short curly spot she’d been playing most of the day, and at 12 ends was leading 14-3. But Jenny managed to get her off her mark and close the gap to 14-17. Janet then scored a 2 and a 1 to increase her lead to 20-14. But Jenny wasn’t ready to back down and went on to win the next 5 ends to run out eventual winner 21-20. 

The Ladies Association presented the trophies and thanked Nobles for hosting and helping out on the day.
