Taylor Support Shropshire Premier Bowls League
Three Players in the Inaugural Battle of the Sexes Tournament
We have three players taking part in the inaugural Battle of the Sexes Tournament at Bank Park Pavilion in Warrington. Two Sir John Bayley bowlers hope to add the Evans-Pritchatt trophy to the league title while Darrell Handley of Highley also takes part. There are doubles and singles matches, with Spencer and Darrell actually teaming up to take on Susan Hill and Kate Harrop. Josh Hale partners Owen Jackson and plays Amanda Nicholas and Tracey Baker. In the Singles Darrell has Ellie Chandler, Spencer Clarke plays Debbie Talbot and Josh Hale takes on the Isle of Man representative.
Good luck to our three representatives.
There is an article here about the event from the Warrington Guardian.

All donations from this event will be going to The Mel Evans MBE Foundation Registered Charity Number 1185479. The newly formed Mel Evans MBE Foundation will support research into the causes of Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in addition to supporting the development of grassroots Crown Green Bowling.
Currently there is no known cause of MND and why healthy and fit men and women are struck down with the condition. Since the ice bucket challenge, MND has received little in the way of significant publicity. MND has no effective treatment or cure and, upon diagnosis, individuals and their families are handed a death sentence with not a shred of hope. Strong words you may say but sadly they are true. Please support in any way you can.
Let us end 2019 with a fabulous display of bowling at this unique event. Please come along and support the sponsors, the players and Bank Park Pavilion if you can.
