The thoughts of everyone at the club are with Stu’s family at this incredibly sad time.

Stu was a mainstay of our club, an enthusiastic volunteer with a passion for promoting WDIBC and a fine bowler. He had many friends at our club and also with the players in the Northumberland Federation teams where he was team captain for the Newton.

He will be missed and remembered.

As always, commiserations go to our runners up and congratulations to our winners.

In particular we’d like to make special mention of the Men’s Pairs results where Taff Rowlands became our oldest ever winner of the club competitions. Taff is an inspiration and as fit as they come at the age of 90…a very very popular winner.
