Match Report: An epic weekend long battle in the Llandovery wilds saw Woolridge claim an historic victory with the highest ever points total on record. Pioneering the Jack chasing technique, Woolridge outwitted his opponents and some zombies whilst simultaneously climbing Y Pigwn. Various terrain was encountered including what has been described as an Extreme Boule pitch from heaven (OS map grid reference: SN 830 314 GB). The match was also notable for the first ever extreme boule round held inside the remains of a roman camp. Several new players joined the scene with Jones and Harrison showing some nice touches. Both Woolridge and Wort are said to be suffering physical and mental exhaustion.

Shot of the Day: Woolridge claimed his 127th point and the match with a splendid last round destructo boule knocking Wort's potential double kisser out of contention.
