Bill Atkinson

HOYLAKE Central and Melrose Bowling Club is celebrating the 90th birthdays of two very special ladies - Margaret Browning and twin sister Elsie Grisdale.

ON a pleasant Sunday morning in Birkenhead Park Hoylake Central's Bill Atkinson took full advantage of the of faster greens to take his first Flyers win for some time beating New Brighton Queens Royal's Eddie Dutton in the final.

AT the Winter Flyers on Sunday in Birkenhead Park Manor Road's Joe Edwards took his second win of this series of the tournaments and further extended his lead at the top of the points table.

IN not the most friendly of conditions Tixall's Mick Andrews had yet another win in Sunday's Bowls Flyers Tournament in Birkenhead Park.

FOR the second consecutive week the final of the Sunday Flyers was between two bowlers who travelled from outside the Wirral to take part in the Tournament.

AFTER last Sunday's Flyers Tournament in Birkenhead Park had to be cancelled it was great to have much more pleasant conditions this week.

IT was a breezy day in Birkenhead Park on Sunday but yet again, despite the heavy overnight rain, the greens were in excellent condition.

THOUGH there had been rain in the night the green was in excellent condition for the Flyers Tournament on Sunday.

IT was a cool blustery morning in Birkenhead Park for this week's Winter Flyers but, thankfully, the rain held off.

IN contrast to the good weather the Flyers Tournaments have enjoyed over the past few weeks, The Top Sixteen Tournament was played in continuous rain.
