Sports in Axminster

It was a busy week for Axe Cliff Ladies with a few competing in the Devon County Seniors Championship at Okehampton .

Putting her professional training to good use was Stella Thompson, who came an excellent second, with most of the top ten coming from the home club - well done Stella.

THE 63rd open tournament is under way at Lyme Regis Bowling Club, but with greatly reduced numbers of competitors.

Until Monday, the weather has been kind, if not all that warm with the rest of the week looking to be an improving situation. A full list of results will appear in next week's LymeOnline.

LYME Regis Bowls is experiencing a busy schedule with county and national preliminaries in full swing as well as all the various in house competitions.

This Saturday sees the start of our week long 63rd Open Tournament and members are hoping that the present fine weather will continue.

JUST one Lyme Regis Bowling Club this week - the result  from the Dorset Women's Bowls League.

The format for this league has changed from the usual 'rinks' format to a 'triples' league. This change was made because of the ongoing pandemic and, will not entail any promotion or relegation this season.

Lyme Regis Bowling Club members are back in action,  albeit with some restrictions.

So far the club as managed managed three friendlies against Axminster, Severalls and Topsham. The first two games were played with number restrictions, but the game at Topsham was played with a full compliment. Unfortunately, the game against South Petherton was called off due to the inclement May weather.

LYME Regis Bowls Club have staged its first final of the season.

An open pairs competition has been held over the past four weeks, with the winning pair from both sections going forward to a final.
