This left Bradwell holding a 14 point advantage at the break. The second half began with the pairs back in action and Bradwell’s Sandra Tungate & Mavis Squires won again beating Bob Fulcher & Sonia Williamson by 9-6. But Broome fared better in the other game as Harold & Hazel Briggs beat John Sargent & Mike Harvey 7-2. The final session of pairs was shared as Bradwell’s Mike Houghton, Roger Squires & Carol Illingworth kept cool to win 10-7 against Janet Cooper, Andy Cooper & Charlie Archer while Broome’s Michael Catling, Jenny Catling & Tony Kerley won by 10-7 against Bradwell’s Ron Beardall, Tracey King & Chris Steggles.

Bradwell - Waveney Cup winners
It has been a great season for Bradwell whose eight man team Bradwell Dynamos achieved the double in the Coastal League winning both the Coastal League and Coastal League Cup. Bradwell has now expanded its membership and has two rollup sessions a week, plus three teams in the Coastal League and another in the Waveney League. Much of their success is down to the work of John Sargent assisted by Roger Squires and Christine Steggles.
