2021 season

Re opening on Monday 19th April 2021.
Good news!
Your bowls club is getting ready to start a new season on Monday 19th April, 11:30am on.
With the threat of Covid 19 still present we are planning a start-up as we played last season.
The key points are:-
  1. We will not play any league matches or fixture matches against teams from other clubs until at least the end of June. Thus, all games will be amongst ourselves only.
  2. Organised rollup sessions will take place on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons between 2 and 4 pm. Please arrive 15 minutes before to allow teams to be sorted.
  3. The Saturday 3 wood pairs league will continue, beginning on the 1st May. Participating pairs will be asked for shortly. As we may return to normal league and Saturday club fixtures in July this league may only run for a few weeks.
  4. The green will be open to members at all other times but not until after 11:30 am on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays as the green is cut these mornings.
  5. Dress code will be informal or greys if you prefer. Either is acceptable.
  6. The club house will be open. However, the main area will be used as one large changing room to maintain social distancing. The two small changing rooms will be closed.
  7. The toilets will be open.
  8. The bar will be closed.
  9. Hand sanitisers and equipment sanitising materials will be available.
  10. A maximum of 6 players per rink is allowed.
  11. Visitors will be allowed.

If you are a newcomer to bowling or an existing bowler that wants to try us out then come along any Tuesday or Thursday afternoon from 2 until 4pm and have a go. It's FREE to try and play for a few weeks.
All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you all 'on the green'.
​PS- if you need more information just call me, Mike Bell, on 01527 502016 or text/Whatsapp to 07708433374.
