Taunton Bowling Club have enjoyed a good start to the season and, with good weather, have managed to play most of their fixtures.
The county A team have played three matches so far.
Their first match was played away in very challenging conditions, winning on one rink but losing overall by 10-2.
The following match was played at home against Street, ending with a good win 11-1.
Then they travelled to Victoria and finished with a successful score of 12-0.
Their next encounter will be on Saturday, June 13, when they are hosts to Yeovil, hoping for a successful afternoon.
The friendly mixed matches have proved to be positive, having played five clubs and winning four.
Cullompton was the venue for their first match, Taunton winning all rinks.
They then went to Honiton and found the green very fast and went down on all rinks.
Chard was the following match, when they played three triples at home.
This was on a baking hot day, and the visitors found the green very fast, going down on all rinks.
On another hot day, Taunton travelled away and, after a three triple match, which was a pleasant afternoon, two rinks were lost and one was won.
Despite the club matches, Taunton have had a busy schedule hosting three tourist matches which have proved very enjoyable.
Penarth Windsor Bowling Club arrived with six rinks and this was a close-fought battle with Taunton the eventual winners.
The match was followed by an enjoyable ploughman's meal.
Taunton were then hosts to Coldicott Bowls Club who brought seven rinks to play, and soon adjusted to the green by winning four of the seven rinks.
Lastly, Sunderland came down to visit with five rinks, but sadly by team time the weather had deteriorated which affected the match, but tea and biscuits followed and the company was good.
