The Monday teams were treated to benign, if slightly chilly conditions and almost all the players took advantage with all but one of the teams putting in good scores. BM Trucks were the nights best performers with a high score of 79 and the Neverwillbees will have mixed emotions having played so much better then their efforts in the week 1 but a total of 46 was not enough to beat the Trucks.
Similarly the Parahandies also got into their stride as they beat the top team of the previous week, the Royal Swingers. It was another good scoring match and the Swingers deemed it a good performance in just their second week, despite the loss.
The same goes for the Happy Gilmour’s whose total of 39 was very respectable but the wily old dogs in the Specialists team (a change in personnel from week 1) managed to record 10 more and take the two points.
In the final game both teams bettered their scores from last week but it was Orion who took the win with a total of 50 as the Sainties could only add 2 to their meagre total from last week and scored just 15. These results leave BM Trucks, Orion and Parahandies tied at the top with two wins out of two and the Neverwillbees, Happy Gilmour’s and Sainties still to get off the mark

MONDAY RESULTS
Happy Gilmours 39 – 49 Specialists
The Neverwillbees 46 – 79 BM Trucks
Orion 50 – 15 Sainties
Parahandies 48 – 37 Royal Swingers.

The Tuesday teams were also fortunate with the weather although the ground conditions were a bit firmer making it a little harder to stop the balls in the targets which meant the more experienced teams came through.
The big result of the night was the Muirton Marvels putting one over the Luckless Leadbetters. The Marvels top scored with an excellent 65 and the Leadbetters had no answer to this fire power, scoring less than half of the Marvels total.
The Senior Moments thrived in the bouncy conditions and they had the second highest score of 45, comfortably taking the points from the Mad Drivers who were slipping all over the place. King Kenyon’s Klan also got a grip in the conditions and their total of 38 was more than enough to maroon the Coastguards.
The easiest run of the night was for Fairhurst who, despite just scoring 15, got the two points as Fairways failed again to send out a team. The Muirton Marvels and King Kenyon’s Klan are the only unbeaten teams with two wins out of two and with the Mad Drivers and Fairways at the opposite end of the scale.

TUESDAY RESULTS
Coastguards 11 – 38 King Kenyon’s Klan
Senior Moments 45 – 17 Mad Drivers
Fairhurst 15 – 0 Fairways
Luckless Leadbetters 30 – 65 Muirton Marvels.
