Sharon, who was forced to give up tennis after an accident, joined the Aldershot Underwood Bowling Club. After seven years she has now become Champion. [Sharon Blight, Bowls Champion]Sharon Blight, Bowls Champion Sharon says: “I Had to overcome the sheer inner emotions of belief, not only for the match itself, but I was playing the no 1 player in the club who happens to be my mother. She is a very good player, an experienced county standard player, who does not give in. I had to win this match! I have always been runner-up so it was an emotional boost and I am now No.1 in the club which secures entry to the next level of play in the North Hampshire zone.” Sharon was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease ten years ago and has worked tirelessly on behalf of Parkinson’s UK ever since.
