Sinclair defeated Bylet by 7 in another Play Off classic at Wrockwardine Wood.

They were made to fight all the way though. Bylet led by 10 off the front four. Camilla Parsonage played well corners to go 19-10 up on John Paddington from 10 across and won 14, Tim Ealey did have a healthy lead over Logan Church at about 15-6 but Logan fought back to get 16. Ash Gregory was also 19-13 up on John Newey but came off winning 18, and Nathan Crocombe came back from 8-0 down to Pete Farmer to win 20.

The middle four saw Harry Church fly out of the blocks to lead Lisa Wilson 12-3 and won 12. Ian Sturdy had a good 12-6 lead over Steve Handley in the middle but Steve came back to 18 across but Ian won 18. Gavin Bridge was always up on Jonnie Davies and won 8 to put Bylet 17 up. However John Potter won 10 when only about 5 across with Cheryl Caswell in the corners to reduce this to 6.

John Roberts played exceptionally well over the middle to lead Rob Renke 17-6 and won 10 to earn player of the match and put Sinclair in the lead for the first time. Darren Fielding was 12-6 up on Martin Beddow and Kevin Keary was 13-6 up on Brian Walters, but Chris Hayward led Jordon Millman 12-4 to give Bylet hope. Martin came back on the longer marks against Darren to win 19, however Kevin won 9 and this left Chris needing to run out from 15-6 to win the game on most winners. We all thought he led a good bowl, but it kept on running and went off the green. Jordon put one a yard away and Chris was short with his second which meant Sinclair had won. Chris won 13 to make the deficit 7, the same scoreline as last year.

Well done to Sinclair on their win and commiserations to the Bylet, we hope they come back and try to get back into our league once again.
