Star Studded

Second round of this season’s double rink Cox Trophy saw us pitched against a star-studded St Martin’s CC. 

But Craigiehill are no respecters of reputation and pulled out two really solid performances. Rink C had Charlie, Ronnie, Margaret and Graeme comfortably easing to a 7-4 win. Our team on Rink D of Stewart, Russell, DavidB and Liz held on to St Martin’s coat-tails (winning most ends), and only losing out by 5-7.

 So with a combined score of 12-11 it’s Craigiehill that progress to the semi-final on 21 March at 6.00.

Trumps on G

And we’re back on Rink G. 

This time it’s for our penultimate Forteviot League match-up against Fingask CC. At the start we were both locked on the 7 points mark we knew this one would be tight. This time we have Stewart, Russell, Margaret and Jack on the ice.
 As seems to be our trade mark of late we got off to another slow start and found ourselves 6-1 down after four ends. Time to pull out some aces. A magnificent second half with back-to-back threes saw us pull away to a final score of 10-7.

With only on match to go we are unable to finish top this year, but we can still have a say on who does win. Our last match on 17 March is against the table-topping Bank of Scotland CC, who only need a draw to clinch the title.
