THERE was a mixed set of results for the Taunton Vivary teams in Thursday’s WSBL matches.

The A team had a good win at home to Taunton Deane, winning on all rinks for an overall score of 58 v 31 for the full 12 points.

The B team suffered a heavy defeat by 31 v 85 away to the league leaders North Petherton A, and the C team also lost at home to Minehead A by 30 v 63, but picked up 2 points for one winning rink.

On Saturday, results were also mixed. The A team lost away at Purnell by 47 v 59, gaining just 2 points for one winning rink, and the C team lost too, away at Yeovil C, but only by 2 shots, 55 v 57, in spite of winning on two rinks.

The B team had a good result at home to Eastover Park, winning by 62 v 55 for 10 points. Harry Scragg’s rink went down by 14 v 26, but Dennis Buckingham had a strong win by 32 v 14, and Dick Bridgeman secured the other winning rink points by 16 v 15.

Every shot counts, as they now sit at the top of the league table on shot difference!
