15th March 24 v Woodpeckers (A) Won 323-321

The Tatti's clinched the title with a narrow away win by 2 pins against Woodpeckers at the Hereford Bowling Club, 323-321


It's their fourth Division One Championship in succession and their 16th in total since they were promoted to the top league for season 1996/97.

The real Rob 'Booby' Weale showed up for this game and started by flooring eight pins on his opening go, yes, that is one more than his total for the entire front pin game just two days earlier. He continued in the same vain for the duration of this match to end the game with the teams highest score by a country mile, well 7 more than Captain Ali to be precise.

As the Tatti players celebrate, lets spare a thought for the unfortunate Cheeso, who put himself in prime position for the wooden spoon award.



"Following on from Wednesday and the injury list continued to be a worry which meant Cheese had to play with Griff on the sidelines protecting his average, sorry I meant achilles, in what is always a difficult place to go against a good Woodpecker’s side and he would have been cursing this as he started with a very unlucky duck in an poor opening first leg that left 13 down. 
But, like the team, Cheese rallied and thanks to Fafs excellent 38, including a second leg 12 spare that kept us in the game, we set the home a challenging 82 to win. 
In what was a very tense finish, we somehow managed to nick the two points, a victory that secured the league title!! 
Excellent effort boys, we can now enjoy the rest of the season".
