Deben Division top of the table clash

On a cool and pleasant Tuesday evening (30th June), The Exiles Bealings played host to the visitors from Aldeburgh Boules Club at the Bealings Piste.

With honours even at half-time the home team squeezed ahead in the remaining two games to run out 3-1 winners and move to the top of the Deben Division.

Away Day Success For Aldeburgh

The re-arranged Deben Division match between Suivre Les Boules Playford and Aldeburgh Boules Club (originally scheduled for Sunday May 24th), was played out earlier today in glorious sunshine and resulted in a 3-1 away win for the 'beachcombers'.

This win keeps them level with The Exiles Bealings at the top of the division, with only 3 shots seperating these two teams.

Reached Our Century!!

By having detailed scorecards sent in on time (normally!), I'm pleased to report that even at this early stage of the season, we've already had over 100 people play in our Coastal League in the 2009 season.

Several teams are getting between 6 and 8 players play for them regularly, so lets hope that continues right through to the end of the season when we hope to welcome more teams in readiness for the 2010 season!
