Meyrick Lodge was sensationally dumped out of the skittles competition after a thrilling encounter against Bourne Lodge.

The Meyrick team battered the hosts in the first leg with Mike and Liz "knock-em-down" Norris setting a high standard.

In the second leg Bourne conspired to win by just one skittle and it came down to a third leg.

There was nothing in it until right at the end when Bourne nudged ahead.

The match at Wimborne Football Club raised £160 for charity and Meyrick, current champions, will have to wait until next year
to get their hands back on the trophy.
