Two excellent evenings of short mat bowls between Westbury Martins and Tewkesbury Avonside marked the home and away fixtures for the Knockout Tournament Final.
Both sides delivered high-quality performances across the two legs. Tewkesbury Avonside dominated their home leg with a decisive 7–2 victory, putting them in a strong position going into the return fixture. Westbury Martins responded with determination, securing wins in the Triples and Australian Pairs, but despite their fightback, the final outcome came down to points difference, with Tewkesbury clinching the overall win.
In the end, the final provided a great forum for the sport, highlighting not only the competitive edge of both teams but also the camaraderie that defines short mat bowls.
Congratulations to Tewkesbury Avonside on their well-earned victory.
