Men’s Rinks

The programme of games at Lincoln kicked off with our Men’s Rinks team of John Dobinson, Ron Brown and Herbie Blacklock on for an early 9:30am game against a very strong Durham trio of G.Farquhar, J.McKenna and S.McIntosh

Unfortunately the Durham lads proved too good for us this time, eventually beating Northumberland 23-12.

Good luck to Gary and his rink in the next round…we think they can go all the way!

Mixed Rinks

Mixed rinks action started at 12:30 as John Dobinson and Ron Brown teamed up again (along with Enid Brown) to face the Suffolk team of A.Turner, R.Kerry and C.Turner.

Again, it was not to be for Northumberland, eventually losing out 24-14.

Good luck to the Suffolk team in the next round.

Ladies Rinks

The trio of Liz Goldsmith, Karen Weites and Ann Lennie started their campaign at 12:30, taking on the Cleveland team of L.Humphries, L.Foster and P.Jones. The Northumberland ladies dominated from the start and came home with a comfortable 23-7 victory.

Unfortunately good run came to an end in the afternoon with Ann, Karen and Liz losing to our local rivals Durham (team of P.Browne, A.Upsall and P.Carlin) who recorded an impressive 26-6 win.

Good luck to Pat, Ann and Pam in the semi finals tomorrow
