Waldie Griffith Trophy 2018
The Waldie Griffiths competition was played at the Peak on the 21st February with West Lothian represented by Buchan, Bathgate, Oatridge and Linlithgow playing against Lanarkshire Province. The overall match could not have been closer although two clubs from each side had comprehensive wins. Over the four matches West Lothian won by only one shot, so we have no chance of regaining the Waldie Griffiths Trophy!
Bonspiel result 2018
All the clubs and teams turned out for the West Lothian Bonspiel with Buchan and Uphall being the only two clubs winning both their games. Uphall won the Lady Baillie Shield by winning 12 ends as against Buchan’s 10. Both Uphall teams scored six ends and 10 shots so had to share the prizes for the highest up rink in the winning club. Oatridge won the prizes for the highest up rink in the competition. Uphall, Buchan and Oatridge will represent the Province in next season’s Area KO competition.
