Inglis Cup Update

Inglis Cup - Inglis Hall same difference !!

Here is a report from Ron on a recent Inglis Cup Game: -


The quality of shot making was awe inspiring with Linda Kemp pulling off raised double take outs to keep the game against David Warden on an knife edge right to the very last stone. David is convinced the Lynda is his 'bogey man' and it was shaping up that way last Friday evening.

Bobby had his first outing of the season and lived up to his King of the Draw reputation from his very first stone.


Jim Gillick is now a regular in the Inglis Cup and he is fast understanding the rules and subtlety of the game and his control of the draw is fast improving.

Lynda and her team always seemed to have the edge and went into the last end 2 shots up. David controlled the head and there was a danger of gaining a 3 for the match but following a fine strike and a good draw by Lynda, David was left with a 4 feet draw to secure a 2 and peel the game. This was played to perfection and an honourable draw resulted.

The format of the competition with positional change after 2 ends is popular and allows our leads and seconds to experience opportunities in the head and let them know how difficult and pressurised the skips job is !!!


Well Done Ron, let's see some more reports from other skips or rink members . E-mail them to mike@ferguson-oliver.co.uk thank you.
