WINNING START IN DIVISION 2

​

Fry's began the new Bristol and District League campaign in Division following last year's unbeaten season in Division 3. The opening match saw Fry's travel to Henleaze 'A' who finished 3rd in Division 2 last year. Fry's have found success at Henleaze hard to come by in past years, but after a tight start, Fry's soon took the lead thanks to rinks 1 and 3, with rink 2 mostly trading singles. Past the halfway point, Henleaze threatened to get back into the match, but some big saves from Fry's skips limited the damage to keep Fry's ahead. The game took a late twist on rink 3 as Fry's dropped 5 shots on their penultimate end which saw Fry's down one on the rink. Unable to find the required shots, Henleaze took the 2 points. A strong finish on rink 1 sealed the match for Fry's and with rink 2 securing shot on the last end, Fry's took 8 points and a 47-36 win seeing them in 3rd in the early standings on their return to Division 2. Scores: Rink 1: 20-10; Rink 2: 12-9; Rink 3: 15-17; Fry's 47-Henleaze 'A' (8-2).
