Bowls: E&L capture Under-25 Cup
THE Scottish Under-25 League Cup is back in the Capital after Edinburgh & Leith's junior bowlers emulated their 2007 title success with a 120-94 victory over Stirlingshire in the final at Kilsyth, writes STEWART MEIKLE.
E&L showed remarkable scoring consistency over the three seven-end phases of the match and dominated them 40-33, 40-27 and 40-34 to emerge as worthy champions. Wins for the rinks skipped by Paul O'Donnell, George Kirk, Jamie Gracie and Chris Steven made for a strong team performance with team captain Colin Hutchison and John McDermott just suffering narrow defeats.
"We won well but it was always a tough battle across the rinks and these lads have done Edinburgh & Leith proud throughout the entire campaign," said spokesman Bernie Callaghan.
