Saturday 20th. A Couple of Volunteers Needed at 4:00

We have a group of 12 trying at bowls and having a social from 4:00-6:00 on Saturday 20th.
if you’re not playing v Strawberry Hill or in the Johns Trophy match v Kent, Karen would be pleased if you can come down and give our visitors (and potential new members) some help from how to hold a bowl; what the bias does and where to stand and the aim of the game.
Remember when you started how much fun it was!

Thanks.

Happy 100th Birthday to Eric Payne!

Congratulations Eric!

We hope you’re having a wonderful celebration with your family and friends on a VERY special day!

Happy memories from our game at The Royal Household in 2018 when you, Reg, Rocket Ron and me had the oldest average age on the green

Tina & Steve, Dawn & Paul and Cathy & Mark have been knocked out in the Mixed Pairs.
Ange & Dawn play Jacqui & Karen in the Over 60’s Ladies Pairs on Friday afternoon at 4:00 – spectators welcome but no rotten tomatoes to be thrown if any of us do a bad shot. (We never mean to!)

Shaf continues his Over 60’s Singles as well as Unbadged Singles challenge. Tonight, it’s a very local tie as Alasdair will be putting his wits and bowls v Shaf. Spectators welcome!

Bank Holiday Monday 25th

The Club will be open as usual on Monday. 10:00 am roll up.
Or, if you fancy a bit of light gardening, weeding and tidying, Tony O’B will be there from 10:00 too. Many hands make light work!

Don’t forget the factor 50 suncream all weekend and next week and, of course the bottle of water and a cap!

Enjoy!
