Farnborough Bowling Club is having a Coffee Morning on Saturday 4th October in aid of the Mcmillian Cancer Support.  So please come along and support this worthy charity.
Rona Jennings is organising, so please contact her for more details.

InvitationposterMacmillan Cancer Support helps improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

There are currently 2 million people living with cancer in the UK. By 2030 there will be 4 million. We want to make sure we’re there for all of them.

One in three of us will get cancer and  for most it will be the toughest thing we ever face. When you’re facing the toughest fight of your life, you need a team of inspiring people in your corner with you.

That’s who we are. We provide medical, emotional, practical and financial support and we push for a better cancer care system. We’re the team that gives you the strength and energy to face the fight and get through it.

Men’s A&D team win Division 4

After very good results in August for both teams.
The B team win Division 4 after an end of season battle between the other contender Mytchett.  The A team had already won Division 2 a couple of weeks ago.

Farnborough needed a draw or win to secure the title but excelled themselves with a 5-0 win, whilst the A team won 5-0 away at Traco: so much for Traco accusing us of playing ringers.
A great season for both teams, well done.
