Watford YBC gathered at St Peter’s church hall after league bowling on Saturday to attend the annual AGM followed by a glittering award ceremony.
The social committee had pulled out all the stops, serving a slap up meal of baked potatoes with various fillings, salads, cakes, biscuits, sweets and all manner of other yummy goodies.
Hollywood Bowl manager, Jason Bird, presented league trophies and also awarded special Hollywood Bowl practice cards to academy bowlers, Beth Hedley, Lee Glide, Maddie Simpson, Laura O’Brien and Kirsty Moore allowing them 3 free games every day! Thanks to Jason and Hollywood Bowl for your fantastic support of our YBC.

Watford YBC peewees, 7 year olds Austin Taylor and Jordan Jimenez took 1st and 2nd place at last weeks Staffordshire Junior Classic Singles held at Strykers Bowl, Tamworth.
Still in his first year at Watford YBC and playing in his first ever tournament, Jordan Jimenez behaved impecably and, despite all the natural pressures of playing in a competition, bowled a solid 97 average with a high game 131, only a few pins short of his personal best.
Austin Taylor dominated the peewee division from the start, opening with a 147 game and holding his lead throughout.

Personal best 289 for Beth Hedley at Herts trials Saturday, March 21st 2009

Beth Hedley notched up another personal best at last weeks Hertfordshore trials at Go Bowling, Dunstable with a 10 strike opening sequence and 289 high game.
Beaten only by world champion Kirsten Penny in the trials, Beth scored well, dropping only 150 pins over the six game session to KP.
Beth’s second game 289 even put her in the lead after 3 games until Kirsten found her line, finishing with a 268, 215, 233 series to win the event.
The perfect game continues to elude her but, with regular coaching by Kirsten’s Dad, Northern Europe’s only USBC gold-level coach, Andy Penny and by Watford YBC’s own John Akers, 14 year old Beth looks set to achieve her first 300 game soon.
Well done Beth – keep practicing!
