AT the Bowls England Men's National Championship being held at Worthing, Marcus Fuller from Rookery BC had an excellent run in the HSBC Junior Singles Championship.

Fuller reaching the quarter-finals before falling to Ben Paulley (Dorset) 21-10. On the way he beat Shaun Jones (Herefordshire) 21-14, Dominic Kelly (Yorkshire) 21-12 and Robert Drew (Cambridgeshire) 21-19.

Suffolk's other representative, Jason Scruby of Bacton BC, lost his first round game against Matt Chambers (Nottighamshire) 21-14.

In the Fours Championship both of Suffolk's representatives went out on the first day of the competition.

Robbie Morter, John Chalk, Colin Gathercole and Dave Wellington from the West Row BC played well in their first game against Lancashire B and had a comfortable 18-12 win. However they failed to come to terms with the green in their second game against Kent B and were comprehensively beaten by 27-8.

Norman Wilcock, John Kilby, Ray Andrews and Mark Stannard from Melton BC were well in control for most of their first game, against Worcestershire B, and looked to be on course to run out comfortable winners. They let the game slip in the last few ends and dropped a four on end 20 to go into the last end 20 all. The game hung in the balance when Mark Stannard came to play his last bowl. With Suffolk holding second bowl, he was right on target to force the Worcestershire shot bowl out of the head, but on its way out, it also removed Suffolk's bowl, leaving victory to Worcestershire.
