Ian Wilson leads the way for “C” team in excellent 25 shot away win.
21/04/2009 by secretary.
Skipper, Ian Wilson, set the standard required from his team with a commanding display in a 21-04 victory at Heswall RBL “B” last Wednesday. The Vics players followed his lead well by posting 7 away winning cards in a fine 25 shot win. Ted Lawrence once again showed that he is fast regaining his form from a few years back, with a fine 21-10 victory. Calvert Jones delighted his Captain by bowling well in his 21-13 win and both Arthur Fagan and Ray Farrell came through tough encounters to post 21-17 winning cards. “Bluey” Davies, 21-18 and Harold Rutter 21-19 got off to welcome winning starts to the season to complete a magnificent 7 away winners for the Vics on the day. Ian Wilson will be hoping for more fine away displays like this during the season to set the Vics up for a charge up the League Table. The Vics play Lever Club at Royden Hall next Wednesday in the Shield.

“B” team lose by 6 shots despite “Skipper’s” brilliant win.
21/04/2009 by secretary.
The Vics afternoon “B” went down by 6 shots at an uneven Harrison Park green last Wednesday despite Skipper, Keith Etches’s brilliant 21-06 victory. After a comfortable home victory last week, the Vics had high hopes of not just the aggregate point but also an away victory. The Vics did have 5 away winners on the day but just could not pull back from 2 early single figure losses. “Branding Iron” Brandon made it 2 wins out of 2 with an excellent 21-11 win and both Derek Thomas and Bill Purcell also completed early season doubles with 21-14 wins. Ian Hamilton proved that last seasons away victories were no flukes with another fine 21-17 victory on foreign soil. Keith Etches showed no mercy in a clinical display of bowling and was understandably disappointed to lose out by such a narrow margin at the end of the day. The “B” team take on Thingwall at Birkenhead Park on Wednesday in the Shield.

Five winners not good enough at home, in “A” Team loss.
21/04/2009 by secretary.
The Vics afternoon “A” Team started off their home campaign with a disappointing 8 shot loss against Harrison Park “A” last Wednesday. With only 5 winners on an excellent, if slowish green, the Vics could not turn round the 38 shot loss from the previous week. Mally Andrews, running out from 09-10 down had an excellent 21-10 win and Elwyn Williams displayed fine form in a really good 21-13 victory over danger man, Dennis Robinson. Tony Ryding gained his 1st win of the season with a 21-15 winning card and Robby Franklin completed his second 21-16 win of the season to remain unbeaten so far this term. Special mention must go to Andrew Stratton who recovered from his shock demise last week to post a fine 21-16 winning card. There were disapponting displays by Eddie Clayburn, Peter Dodd and Skipper, Billy Atkinson, with all 3 bowlers seemingly unable to come to grips with either the pace of the green or the fine displays of Ernie Gartland, Peter McEneany and Brian Pinder respectively. Next up for the Vics is a Shield match against Gladstone Tigers at Bromborough Pool on 22nd April.
