June 1st was another great day at the Club.  Lovely weather and 27 bowlers competed in the annual Frank Costar Trophy – a drawn triples event.  The teams played round robin games in two leagues and after some close matches the two league winners contested the final.  After a tough fought final our eventual winners were Alan, Roger and Terry. But win or lose, competitors and spectators had a great day of fun and competitive bowls.  If you’d like to try bowls come along and give it a go, we hold introductory coaching mornings most Saturdays.

We held our yearly Memorial Day on 4^th May and the force really was with our ‘Star’ players as they went to ‘War’ and had a very friendly battle for the shield.

The two league winners were both worthy finalists having won all their league games.

Well done to Alan Elliott and Michael Andrews who finished as runners-up and congratulations to Alison Wrigley, Chrissie Cook and Simon Webb for being our champions this year.

Many thanks also go to all our members who supported the day and raised £145 for the Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice.

We will be providing free coaching sessions with one of our coaches, starting 3rd May.  If you would like to try bowls with no obligation or cost then fill in the request form below and one of our coaches will contact you to arrange.

Coaching Dates

A great Opening Day Spoon Drive – thank you for organising Edith and Barbara.  The green looked and played amazingly well, probably the best ever for a first day of the season.  And the sun even shone on the more than 50 people who came along to play and watch, after our President Dieter had officially opened the Green.
Our winner on the day was Colin who was head and shoulders ahead of the rest of us!

It was the club’s 75th Birthday a couple of years ago and we decided to replace the ditch liners and a couple of paths. Here is the YouTube Video record of that and the 2022 season.
