Results from the inaugral Derbyshire Shield Double Diamond Fours held at AMF Bowling Ilkeston from 11th to 25th October 2009. In this the first event the team of 'Ave-It'; Anthony Swallow, Lee Jeferson, Barry Walker & Ian Hollands, scrapped in to the Team All Events top spot by just 18 pins. Team Camel 1 of Kat Little, Lol Ellis, Neil Walker & Cliff Dew were pushed in too second place, even though Team Camel claimed top spot in the doubles and a bronze for third place in the trios section. This is compared to the 'Ave-It' results of 3rd and 51st in the singles, 5th & 16th in the doubles, 5th & 8th in the trios and 23rd in the team event.
These results show just what an exciting format the diamond fours are when every result from each member of the team counts.
Congratulations to the 'Ave-It' team and to everyone who bowled.
