England men third in British Isles Championships
England men suffered disappointment in their bid to regain the British Isles Senior Team title at Belmont BC in Belfast last weekend.
The team started off well thanks to a 113-105 win against Wales, but defeats to both Ireland and Scotland left England in third place. Ireland won the title ahead of Scotland. For full results from the Men’s British Isles Championships and International Series, go to: www.britishislesbowls.com
