Well Bowled Fantasy League
Last week the Fantasy League world of Meltham bowler Jeff Smith looked very rosey indeed as he had established a 9-points lead in the race to the end of season £60 prize of Well Bowled vouchers. Jeff had selected 5 of the 8 teams topping their respective divisions. He also had two of the second placed teams and then 10th placed Hemplow from Division 3 of the 6-Man League who were inevitably going to be transferred out in the first transfer window.
However that all changed this week as only one of his eight selections managed to win this week. He was passed in the table by David Craddock and Brian Faichney who go level top, one point in front of the deposed leader.
Their timing is good as the last set of fixtures of the month of April means that the entrant scoring most points in the calendar month wins a £10 cash prize. As both David and Brian are level on points it comes down to the Tie-Breaker guess that they both included as part of their entry. The one that had a Tie-Breaker points haul nearest to the monthly total of the top Division 1 team collects the dosh. The Division 1 leaders, Golcar Lib 'A', had amassed 26 points in April. David's Tie-Breaker score is 35 but Brian won this decider with a Tie-Breaker score of 29 points to collect the tenner. Well done.
Having won this monthly prize Brian's name does not go into the hat for the 77-Draw but the other 76 entrants are going into the hat for another £10 prize. The winner of that will be announced as soon as I can find two local bowling celebrities to undertake the random draw.
As a point of interest after a poor Winter Fantasy League season for Lucky Dip entries I am pleased to see a rapid turn around in fortunes with 7 of the Top 10 entries all being Lucky Dip entries with hopes of more to come.
The full list of prizes is:
£60 in Well Bowled Sales Vouchers for the overall end of season winner
£25 in Well Bowled Sales Vouchers for the runner-up
£15 in Well Bowled Sales Vouchers for 3rd place
£10 cash for the Manager of the Month every month
£10 cash for the All 77 Entrants Draw every month
