FIVE Rivers Indoor Bowls Club’s Mary and Ray Brown with partners Pamela Gordon and Bernie Skudder were rewarded for reaching the semi-final of a national tournament with a £500 cheque.
The bowlers, competing at Warner Leisure Hotels Open Fours Champion of Champions at Lakeside Coastal Village, Hayling Island cruised through their robin round matches.
In the quarter-final, they convincingly beat John Hurley’s Herts IBC but were knocked out in the semis to Croydon Rink, who beat them 13-6.
Incidentally, Croydon went on to lift the trophy.
England captain and three time world singles champion Andy Thomson delivered the prize to the Five Rivers team.
