NATIONAL MEN’S ‘DENNY PLATE’ COMPETITION – WELLINGBOROUGH’S SUCCESS

WBC have reached the Semi-Final of the National Men’s Inter Club ‘Denny Plate’ Competition.

The second success for the County in National Inter Club competition came with Wellingborough’s outstanding win in the Quarter Finals of the National Inter Club ‘Denny Plate’ competition, when they met Falaise IBC, Hastings, on Saturday, 23rd January, 2010, at the neutral green at Wey Valley IBC, Guildford.

Both teams started well, and at the 5ends mark each had 2 winning rinks, although Wellingborough had a 5 shot advantage at that point, which they increased just a little to 8 shots after 10 ends with 2 winning, one drawn and 1 losing.  The County club however then went into overdrive over the next stage to increase their lead to 22 shots at 15 ends with 3 rinks winning and the other just behind by 2 shots, and that lead was maintained to the end of the game with all four rinks posting wins, although Gregory’s rink left it to the last end to get the 1 shot win.   Overall Wellingborough won by 27 shots.  Final score was Wellingborough 96 shots – Falaise 69 shots.   Rink scores, Falaise skips only, as follows:
