18th September, Kuala Lumpur: Warehouse Administrator Darren Cundy from Nottingham, England will mark his first outing at World Championships with special memories of the Trios event. The 27 year-old right-hander shot a perfect game in Game One of today's first squad, while some of his teammates were struggling to adjust to the day's condition.

"I found the lanes tricky to start with and struggled in the Singles and Doubles, but the last three games put me on a 236 average," he said smiling.

Cundy first represented England at the European Cup in Germany in June 2002 and again in February this year at the WTBA World Tenpin Teams Cup in Denmark, but is shooting for his first Championship medal .

"The (England) women have been awesome at this Championships" he said prophetically, with another Gold medal in sight for Zara Glover in the All Events to be decided today.

Darren Cundy is now setting his sights on the AMF Bowling World Cup in Honduras, where he and Donna Adams will represent England at the end of this month.
