Congratulations to Ystradfechan Bowls Club for their well-deserved victory in this final game of the season.

As the season comes to a close, Dinas Bowls Club reflects on the outstanding camaraderie witnessed on the greens. The fate of our season depends on Whitchurch's results, so we will await the next week to see if we dont have to play Nicky every week! Seriously though, whichever team does make promotion they have certainly earned it. Division 2 has delivered an exceptional season of bowls, with suspense and excitement lasting right until the very end. It has been a top-class year for all involved.
