KINGSTEIGNTON Bowls Club ladies entertained Paignton in their South Devon Ladies Bowls League on May 2, to kickstart their season.

KBC won 85-26 (10-0 league points): Sue Hancock 32, P Allcock 8; Jackie Carr 26, S Bellingham 6; Margaret Sole 27, J Smith 12.

The weather was warm and sunny and a very friendly match was played out with KBC ladies playing very well, as the scores reflected.

During the winter season the Paignton ladies, no doubt, have been playing indoor bowls on a carpet surface and only recently moved outside to a grass green, which should have helped Paignton to still be familiar to an all-weather style playing surface.

However, home advantage came to the fore with KBC claiming maximum points. All bowlers from both teams said they enjoyed the morning.

The KBC bowlers got special praise from Captain Margaret Sole for great play.
