The standard of bowling throughout the competition was high in spite of a few showers on Friday.
The supporters were entertained and enjoyed the level of skill shown by all players, who produced and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the two days.
The presentations were made in the club house by the club president Cynthia Russell.
