SE News - Results and GL Merger

Les Scrannage of Worthing won the World Masters in his class with 90 and 96 weighing 92.73. This is well under his best but he has had at least one serious shoulder operation. John Collins was 6th in his class.

Patricia Forbes at 69.13 is our sole Jersey member and got bronze in her group.

At the European Youth Champs Zoe Smith from Europa/Dartford was 5th in her class against much older women with 73; 96; total 166 in the 58 class.

Merger of SE and GL: The meeting to make this happen and appoint officers will be on Dec 6, and will be called by BWLA. I will advise clubs as soon as possible.

In theory the enlarged division will make for better and bigger events, and will be very well off. This year has seen a dramatic increase in the finances of the SE as a result of courses and so it should be possible to help those clubs where there is a clear of increasing BWLA membership and competitive activity.

With luck the merger will enable members to vote in new, I hope younger, officials.
