ANDY O'Callaghan, Bruce French, Colin Gardiner and Colin Vickery of Bude Bowling Club reached the Divisional Final of the National Fours which they lost to a team from Stratton after having beaten teams from Wadebridge and Bodmin as well as another team from Bude. They have now qualified for the County Quarter Finals which will be played at Redruth in July and we wish them good luck.
