Over the weekend of 30-31st July Aberystwyth Bowling Club held the Annual Corporation Cup. The sponsorship provided by Aberystwyth Town Council, Dolphin Fish Restaurant, Davies, Heulyn, Davies and Clive’s Menswear drew competitors’ from as far afield as Newtown, Builth Wells, Cambridgeshire and Bristol. Sadly some of the regular entrants could not play because of health problems. In the first round games there were some epic battles as well as some resounding victories. Previous winner James Barker won 21 -13 over Rob Smith. Hilary Owen of Newtown and Morfydd Rees of Lampeter had along game Hilary being the eventual victor. She followed this victory up by beating David James 21-18 and Bert Jones 21-15 to get to the Semi final. Richard Huws had a marathon match against Glyn Jones eventually winning 21-18 but sadly met his fate being well beaten by Gwynant Ellis who also had an easy victory over Min Evans in the previous round. Lindsay Collin of Page Ladies had an epic game against Brian Davies with Lindsay being in the lead throughout until the 24^th end when the score was 20-20. Brian managed to get the required shot on the next end to win. The four players from Builth Wells each succumbed to local bowlers but gave credible performances especially as they are new bowlers. Last year’s runner up Janet Davies won narrowly over Jamie James and beat Janice Petche in the quarter finals. Meanwhile Ian Pugh beat James Barker to set up quarter final match against club mate Gwynant Ellis which was eagerly anticipated by the spectators but it turned out to be a fairly straight forward victory 21-10 to Gwynant. In the semi final Hilary Owen did not produce the form of the previous day losing by 21-8 to Gwynant Ellis. The other semi final saw Brian Davies performing his second come back of the competition this time against Janet Davies. Janet led all the way to the 23^rd end when the score was levelled at 19 all. Then Janet went 20-19 up, Brain levelled at 20-20 and held his nerve to score one to take him into the final against Gwynant Ellis. Whist the finalists had a break the Builth players Ken Francis and Steve Jones kept the supporters entertained with an “exhibition” match.  In the final marked by last year’s winner David James Brian Davies shot off to a 14 nil lead scoring three 4’s and a 2. Gwynant never really recovered from this but did pull back to within three shots but Brian was the victor 21-13.

The spectacular Corporation Cup and prizes were presented by the Mayor, Richard Boudier, who participated in the good humour and enjoyment of the event
