Four teams from Shoreham BC entered the Adur IBC tournament for outdoor clubs in February. 32 teams from various local clubs entered the competition and Marion Hoggen, Paul Green, Suzie Warley and Dave Hoggen won all 5 of their matches and picked up prize money of £150 for finishing in 3rd place.

Congratulations to Suzie Warley and Marion Hoggen for reaching the final of the Adur Indoor Ladies Nominated Pairs Competition and to Bob Page and Dave Hoggen who along with Trevor Smith reached the final of the Adur Mens Triples Competion. As we are primarily an outdoor club, this is a good achievement. Unfortunately Bob was unable to play in the semi final and may not be able to play in the final but if not, he certainly played a major part by playing well in the earlier rounds.

Congratulations to Ian Stainsby who won our Most Improved Indoor Bowler Of The Season award for 24/25. Unfortunately he was unable to play in our final match of the season so the trophy was presented by our Indoor Captain Marion to Ian's wife Ann on his behalf.
Adur Indoor Easter Fours Competition - On Good Friday, two Shoreham BC teams entered this competition. Dave Page, Brenda Page, Malcolm Merrell and Suzie Warley made up one team and the other team was Marion Hoggen, Ann Stainsby, Mike Harding and Dave Hoggen. Well done to both teams who each won 2 of their group matches.
A great result in our first Brodie League match of the season, winning 8 - 2 (73 - 63) at home against Marine Gardens.

A team including Dave Hoggen which in the earlier rounds also included Bob Page finished as runners up in the 24/25 Adur IBC Mens Triples Competition. Halfway through the final they were 16 - 2 behind but then fought their way back into the match and in the end only lost by 2 shots with the final score being 19 - 17.
The following day, Suzie Warley and Marion Hoggen played together and were runners up in the Ladies Nominated Pairs final. In a very close match they did very well to be in the lead against a very experienced pair but just fell behind in the last few ends of the game.
