BALCOMBE TROPHY 2022
On Sunday, 17th July Wellingborough BC will be hosting the Bowls England Regional Finals of the Balcombe Trophy, which is an Inter County Double Rinks Competition for Men. About 85 clubs applied to host a Regional Final and we have been allocated the Balcombe Trophy. There will be 32 bowlers from four counties, plus their supporters.
The semi-finals, consisting of 21 ends will start at 10am over four rinks, with the final starting at 2pm over two rinks. The winning county will go through to the National Finals at Leamington in September.
