Herefordshire bow out of national competition

8:00am Monday 8th February 2010

HEREFORDSHIRE exited from the National Inter-County Competition when they failed to get a positive result from a Preliminary match against Somerset, in the Consolation Compet-ition.

The county side previously went out of the main part of the competition with a bad result against Worcester at the Gilt Edge Centre when they won only three of the 16 games and went down 34 - 6 (209 to 144 shots).

In the Preliminary match for the Consolation Competition against Somerset, they fared better but suffered in the end.

Of the 16 games, they won six, lost seven and drew three so the match was always there to be won. The final score before the bonus points, was 17 - 15 to Somerset, which they converted to 25 - 15 with all eight bonus points (188 to 149 shots).

Herefordshire A will be playing in the quarter finals of the main competition against either Somerset or Staffordshire. The quarter finals will take place on Sunday, February 14 at Caroline Chisholm School in Northampton.
