PALM TROPHY 2010 The PALM Trophy Competition for young ladies under 31's was this year held at Old Coulsdon Bowling Club on 22 August 2010. This trophy is dedicated to Ann Barfield who was Surrey County President in 2003 and President of Hersham bowling Club in 2005.
I had the pleasure of attending this event. The weather was very humid and warm with only a light shower of rain towards the end of the day, so everyone enjoyed themselves and we were able to watch some very competitive and outstanding bowling by some very talented young ladies.
Contestants:
A Kelly Jenkins Egham
B Kylie Hampton Knapp Hill
C Chantelle Bedward Sutton
D Rebecca White MIlford
E Gemma Barnett Cheam
F Debbie Sarrat Old Coulsdon
RULES. There was one group of 6 players, each contestant had to play 5 games to play all the others in the group. Each session had two trial ends followed by 8 ends or 45 minutes-(time starting after the trial ends).
