Barcombe

STOOLBALL: The top four teams in each division will compete at Seaford on August 6 for the championship. Barcombe, at the moment, are one of the top four in our Mid Division and it's getting very exciting as we approach the end of the season. We had two wins this week. Home match against Chiddingly on July 4. Barcombe 183 in 15 overs, 4 wickets lost. Chiddingly 135 in 15 overs, 7 wickets lost. Away to Glynde on July 6. 63 in 13 overs, 8 wickets lost. Barcombe 75 in 6 overs, 3 wickets lost. We are arranging two friendly matches for our new Juniors against Fletching and Bluebells. We're really proud how well they are coming along.

BOWLING CLUB: The midweek game last week against Crowborough Wolfe provided us with the second win of the season so far. On a near perfect green and in very hot sunshine (28c), Barcombe held their nerve and won the game by five shots. The final score was Crowborough 56 Barcombe 61. The win is more pleasing as Crowborough have 90 members and Barcombe only 20 members; we are one of the smallest clubs in Sussex.
