2023 Association 6 Bell Striking Competition



The 2023 Bath and Well Association 6-bell Striking Competition was held on Saturday 30th September 2023 at Pen Selwood in the Cary Branch. One team was invited from each of the Association's 11 Branches and 6 teams entered.

I believe that the occasion was enjoyed, despite the trepidation of at least one of the competitors. I am glad that Cary Branch entered a team and acquitted ourselves reasonably. Despite the low numbers of teams, the opportunity to meet fellow ringers from across the association was enjoyed. The ladies from Wincanton did a fantastic job of preparing tea for us. I am also grateful for the helpers who turned out at Pen Selwood and Wincanton to host, time-keep, photograph and assist with arrangements. Thanks also to Karen and Christine Dunn for their assessments of the six bell competition and to Christopher Jenkins for his helpful comments about the eight bell competition.

The results were as follows:

1. Bridgwater (32)
2. Axbridge (33.5)
3. Frome (36.5)
4. Bath (47.5)
5. Chew (59)
6. Taunton (71.5)
