Big congratulations to the Crofters (Beijing Banquet 🤪) team on winning the Sighthill Cup for the second time. They join the Artful Dodger in winning the trophy twice, incidentally defeating the Dodger in the final.

Windy conditions affected the games for all teams but ultimately nothing was stopping the bowls or the fun.

All games were played in the spirit that the competition was originally set out to be which was fantastic.

Photos of the winners will be added here shortly.

Today was the Colin Kimber Fundraiser which was won by Smaj and Jamie.

Well done to everyone who took part and for raising funds for this worthy cause.

Congratulations to Stuart Isbister who is the new Sighthill Bowling Club champion. Stuart beat Adam Melrose 21-19 in a very swings and roundabouts game.

Adam was up 19-17 at the last end but was was 2 shots down in that end. Adam tried to drive his last bowl to clear but unfortunately wickied off a bowl knocking Stuart in for a 3 leaving him needing only a draw with his last shot to win the end with 4 shots and the game overall.

Again, congratulations to Stuart Isbister and commiserations to Adam Melrose.

Remember that this Saturday, the 12th August we are holding a fundraiser for Sean Kelly’s stepson Colin Kimber.

Colin has been diagnosed with a terminal stage 4 brain tumour and we are trying to fundraise so he can enjoy the time he has left with his family as much as he can.

Please, if you can, join us at the club on Saturday from 12:30. If you can’t be there then any donation you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance 👍

We played Eat Calder today in the John Fraser memorial. What an absolutely fantastic day it was. Sighthill won by 112 – 72.

The whole day was enjoyed by everyone with everyone commenting on how enjoyable their games were, the good company within each rink and the general atmosphere during the whole day..

No doubt next year will be equally enjoyable between two clubs who have such a great relationship with each other.

Looking forward to next year guys and thank you for such an entertaining day.
