Yesterday, the Ireland team really sprung to life at the European Bowling Championship in Germany winning three of the four individual gold medals on offer and two bronze.

Séamus Sexton is the new men’s champion of Europe, taking the gold medal held by David Murphy in each of the last three championships. Darren Dempsey and Rachel Kingston both bowled brilliantly to win the two under-18 medals, while James O’Donovan and Kelly Mallon won bronze in the senior championships.
