Sisters from Thetford are celebrating a remarkable double after both were named in the England Short Mat Bowls under 21 squad. In September Chloe Suffolk, 13, travelled to Solihull to represent Norfolk in the National Under 18 Championships and played so well that she was invited to join the National under 21 squad. Now, remarkably, Chloe’s sister Kacy, 11, has also been selected for the squad, making it double delight in the Suffolk household. Speaking after her selection Kacy said: “I was really pleased when Chloe got picked, but now I’ve been picked too it’s really exciting. I can’t wait for me and Chloe to hopefully play for England.” Both girls are members of the Thetford Short Mat Bowls Club, which is very proud of its young players.

Pauline Barsby, who is Club Secretary, said, “Bowls can have a reputation of being a sport for the older generation, but we have many young members who are proving that it’s a sport for all ages. Chloe and Kacy are excellent prospects and everyone at the club is thrilled that their skill and potential has been recognised and rewarded by England. The sisters are a credit to our club, our sport and the town.”
