THREE former winners are in the hunt for the Spring Handicap bowling title at Moldgreen Con.

Steven Hirst, champion in 1996 and 2005, Mark Bramall (2003) and Peter Kain (2006) look set to lead the chase for the title.

Last year’s winner Adam Beaumont has failed to qualify. It is a title that has so far eluded Paul Sigsworth, runner-up last year and in 2002.

The change of venue (the final has been held at Lockwood Park for the last eight years) was at Moldgreen’s request as they are celebrating the opening of their new pavilion.
