Burwash
U18’s Singles Competition – Sun 25 Nov 07
Kent had three entrants into this
competition this year; Christopher Wood, Teynham SMBC, Christopher Philpott,
Balfour SMBC and Edward Selleck, Kemsing SMBC. There were a total of fourteen
entrants from areas including Surrey, Kent, West Sussex and East Sussex.
The entrants were drawn into three groups
and this year, the Kent players were drawn onto different mats.
Christopher Wood was in a group of 4; his
match scores were as follows;
Won
13 - 5
Won
22 - 2
Won
19 -5
This put him through to the quarter finals.
Christopher Philpott was in a group of five;
his match scores were as follows;
Won
8 - 7
Won
7 - 5
Lost
6 - 11
Won
10 – 8
This was also enough to put him through to
the quarterfinals.
Edward Selleck’s was also in a group of
five; his four match scores were;
Lost
7 - 13
Lost
2 - 16
Drew
7 - 7
Lost
6 – 9
The standard of bowling was exceptionally
high and Edward should be proud of the way he performed on the day, especially
as he has only been playing for approximately three months. He is a promising
young bowler who could do very well in the future; well done.
The quarter finals saw Christopher Wood up
against last year’s competition winner. After a very good game Christopher was
unfortunately beaten 7 shots to 10. This is the last year that both Christopher
Wood and his opponent will be able to play in the competition as they both turn
18 in the New Year.
Christopher Philpott was able to beat his
opponent in the quarter finals, another promising young bowler from Surrey. The
match score was 17 shots to 1. This put Chris into the semi-finals, but with
the opposing competition getting stronger each round could Chris go any
further?
Unfortunately, this year Chris was knocked
out in the semi-finals, but it was a very close game with some extremely good
bowling from both players. The score was 8 shots to 9.
The final saw last years and many other
previous years, winner take first place again, winning 13 shots to 4.
Well done to everyone who took part and
thank you to the organisers for making the day so enjoyable.
Next year will see a new face lift the
winner’s trophy; hopefully they will be wearing a Kent shirt!
