It is with great sadness that I have to report that we have lost a well loved past member of our club.
Ted Huggins passed away peacefully this morning, Friday 14th October, with Maureen by his side in the Intensive Care Unit of the Great Western Hospital, Swindon, after having been admitted to hospital, sometime earlier.
Our deep condolences, thoughts and best wishes go out to Ted's wife Maureen, their family and friends.
Ted and Maureen joined Ringwood Bowling Club in 2017 and came back to Ringwood in 2020 after spending two years at Braeside. They moved to Marlborough at the end of the 2021 season. Whilst at Ringwood, Ted had a great impact playing for Ringwood in both the Bournemouth and New Forest leagues and competitions, Ringwood competitions and representative matches.
He will be sorely missed by our members and also those of Braeside Bowling Club. The following picture shows Ted after winning the 2021 B&DBA Triples with teammates Dan Cookman and Richard Thomas.
I will post details of funeral arrangements when known.

Jack Attack 2022
The inaugural Jack Attack was held on the last playing day of the season and was enjoyed by players and spectators alike in glorious Sunday weather. The competition was promoted and run by Debbie Senior and sponsored by Paul Wright and Frank Senior.
The day got under way with a Spider roll up competition. Some woods were close, some not so close and some very close. However, the best wood, in the tentacles of the Spider, was delivered by Chris Pentelow, who won the prize.
This was followed by each triple team playing four, 5 End, matches to determine which teams go forward to the afternoon Semi-Finals and Final.
A very large spread was contributed by everyone taking part and the shared lunch was enjoyed by all during the break in the proceedings.
The Semi-Final and the final were also played over 5 Ends but there were no bonus Joker points available in the Final.
The Final was a very good, close, game played between team Oak (Ed Melton, Chris Dalrymple & Hilary Edge) and team Holly (Barry Vaughan, Chris Pentelow & Kate Phillips) with team Oak taking the spoils.
