Polmaise Bowling Club were the pride of Stirlingshire on Sunday when they became Scottish Top Ten Champions. In the finals of the inter-county tournament in Edinburgh they won the title with a fine win over Bonnyrigg Bowling Club by six points to two.

The final took place on the Blairfield green and the scores were:

  • Singles - Polmaise (J. Blevins) 21, Bonnyrigg 19
  • Pairs - Polmaise (S. Deans and P. Black) 25, Bonnyrigg 10
  • Triples - Polmaise (J. Walker, W. Bone and R. Fulton) 15, Bonnyrigg 14
  • Fours - Polmaise (H. Scott, J. Bone, A. Buchanan and J. Black) 5, Bonnyrigg 19

Earlier in the day, Polmaise disposed of Headwell Bowling Club in the semi-final played on Gorgie Mills green.

So the conquering heroes returned to Fallin on Sunday evening as Scottish Champions, bringing honour to the club, the village, and the County.

Congratulations Polmaise!
