Message from Tony O’B that Wednesday 30th will be the last time we can bowl on the outdoor green in 2026 .

Tony and the Ground Work Team need to put work in over the autumn and winter in order to have a good green from early-ish next season.

Indoor bowls will start straight after and I’ll put a note up for informal roll ups so we all get a chance to reduce the speed of our swing, adjust to the line and hopefully not ditch too many bowls before the matches and leagues start!

First mixed friendly is Saturday 10th October at home v King George Field. At 2:00.
Fixture list to be posted up soon thanks to Dave W’s hard work.

Congratulations to Dave P, Ange & Scott who took the 18th end to win the final.
it was 15-15 after 17 ends.
Runners up – George N, Peter T & Steve G.

Men’s Pairs Final tonight.

Congratulations to Dave P who beat Steve G in the Men’s Championship Final

 

Thanks to Paul S for organising and collating all the comps.

Good luck to:

Shaf- 75 Shots – lost to Tracey F from Sunbury

Peter J (as Strawberry Hill competitor) in both the Firestone and Gillette Singles Finals and won both v Andy B from Ashford

Brian Le M & Dawn in the Aussie Pairs final lost on the final end to Andy & Brad B from Ashford

Well done to Laurie G for organising on the day as well as being umpire, to James H as Competition Secretary and to Ashford BC who, yet again, did a brilliant job of hosting with standard of green, for catering inc BBQ and having so many members contributing . Hope they’re getting a lie-in this morning!

Good luck for the Annual Men v Ladies’ match.
Start time is 2:00 pm not 1:00 pm.

Good luck to our Triples teams heading down to Southsea to play an end-of-season mixed friendly v Brian Le M’s former club.

There are a few spaces left for this fun evening. Book now!
Get those horses galloping into Finals Weekend on 26th/27th!

If any further information is needed, please speak to Ange at the club or ask Jane to sign you up!

Thanks

 

Good luck to Karen & Jacqui as they face Surrey in their Ladies Pairs at Leamington starting at 12:00.
a win will mean a second game after 16:00 on Sunday then hopefully into quarter finals plus on Monday.
We’re rooting for you from home and at Leamington!
