FRANCOIS GARCIA AWARDED THE STEEL MEMORIAL BOWL

Congratulations go to Francois Garcia on winning the C.A. Award of the Steel Memorial Bowl for the most improved female Association Croquet player in 2012. Francois fully deserves the award with all the hard work and practise that she put in during the season.

She becomes the third Bowdon lady to win this award after Ailsa Lines in 1995 and Jenny Williams in 2001. The trophy is named after the famous lady player Miss D.D. Steel who won the Championship of the North of England for four consecutive years from 1935 and again in 1952, being runner-up in 1947; in those days it was played at Buxton. Other wins in our region include the Northern Week Open Singles title in 1938 & 1939.
