Ross Bowls Club completed a highly successful short mat season by winning the Herefordshire Short Mat Bowls League Division 1 title, the LEH competition, and the Bromyard Triples.

A late run of wins from their games in hand propelled Ross up the Division 1 table and above Lea A, whom they beat to the crown by 10 points, after just one defeat all season.

Ross Larruperz claimed third spot a further eight points back.

Wins in the singles, triples and fours gave Ross a three-shot win at Aston Ingham in the final of the LEH, the climax of the tournament involving clubs from Herefordshire and Gloucestershire.

And they overcame Aston Ingham again to take the Bromyard Triples crown through their team of Dave Luther, Margaret Eggleton and skipper Les Williams.

In Division 2 of the Short Mat League there was a close finish, with the top six separated by just seven points.

Ross B were pipped by Lea B on shot average after both sides finished on 72 points.
