Ross Davis and Malcolm De Sousa celebrated winning the British Isles title

Jersey's Ross Davis and Malcolm De Sousa have won the pairs title at the British Isles Bowls Championship.

The duo beat Irish champions Kyle Blakely and Jack Moffett 18-9 in the final in Ayr.

It came after a tense 19-18 semi-final win over England's Lewis Baker and Commonwealth Games gold medallist Nick Brett on Wednesday.

The islanders trailed by four shots with two ends to go, but levelled the scores before winning an extra end.

But Jersey's women's four of Fiona Archibald, Sara Douglas, Lorraine Plante and Suzanne Job could not emulate Davis and De Sousa as they lost 18-6 to England in their final.

The quartet had a tense route to the final after beating Wales 18-17 in an extra end.

Jersey dropped two shots in the final end to see the game levelled at 17-17 and were staring defeat in the face in the additional end until Archibald produced an excellent shot to dislodge three Welsh bowls.
