Monday 14th October – Update on Rink 1

This is a message to keep  everyone up to date on developments to get Rink 1 available for play.
Representatives of Cavendish Surveyors and Maclen Property Services visited early on Friday 11/10/24 to look at temporary repairs to the wall and see us through safely to the main repairs in May 2025.
They came up with a plan to fit a temporary plywood stud wall anchored to the steels either side of and along the bottom of the damaged area. This should be a quick and inexpensive procedure. We were happy with this plan and are awaiting a quote from Maclen. We stressed it was important that this went ahead asap and a maximum time of 23/10/24 was not dismissed by the builders. We are awaiting the quote.
Thank you.  Alasdair.

Indoor Leagues Updated

Cambridge Park Indoor Leagues – Sign up sheets
If you want to take part in the Cambridge Park Indoor Bowls Leagues this season and you are not already in a team for a league, a sign up sheet has been put on the noticeboard at the club.
Just write your name, your email address (if you have one), telephone number and then tick the league(s) that you would be interested in playing in. Alternatively, you can email me at davidhale1815@gmail.com
If you are already in a team in the league you want to play in, you don’t need to sign up.
The plan is that the leagues hopefully start week commencing 21st October.  All leagues last 2 hours.  The current plan is to have leagues on Monday (4 player teams), Tuesday (3 player teams) and Wednesday evenings (4 player teams) at 6.30pm, as well as Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at 2pm (both 3 player teams).  The exact number of leagues that run will depend on team captains being able to find enough players and also people being prepared to act as team captains and organise teams.
Please also note that whilst I will do my best to place everyone who signs up, I am dependent upon team captains having the spaces in their teams to place them.
