Hide AdThe Ladies Triples Invitation at Pulborough Bowling Club had Sandra Dunnion, Jayne Thomas and Julia Knight as Lancing’s trio.


This was a long day playing four games against quality lady players from around Sussex. The Lancing ladies played well, drawing three and losing one game.
There was a lovely atmosphere, plenty of laughs at lunch and a wonderful day all round.
Although extremely tired the ladies will be looking forward to next year – and maybe Lancing will take two teams.
