Darren Wellings is a winner in Wem singles
Shropshire senior team star Darren Wellings is the new singles champion of the Terry Jones Solicitors Wem League.
Wellings, who plays for Hanwood in this league and Meole Brace in the Premier, added to his list of individual honours by triumphing on Sunday at Greenfields.
Everton-mad football fan Wellings, a county fixture since 2011, beat Prince of Wales BC’s Dave Redge – a Meole team-mate in the Premier – 21-12 in the final.
New Wem League secretary Graham Hughes commented: “After an excellent afternoon’s bowling, the Wem League singles final was contested by Darren Wellings and Dave Redge.
“Darren got off to a good start and established a lead which Dave could not pull back.
“The gallant semi-final losers were Phil Whatmough and Carl Preece.
“Our thanks are extended to Greenfields Bowling Club for the excellent facilities provided.”
