Night bowls
Tuesday and Thursday night bowls 2024/25
With the arrival of daylight saving time we shall re-commence our Tuesday/Thursday evening bowls sessions. From October 15 Ron Slager will run sessions for casual/social bowls every Tuesday evening, 6pm for 6:30 start. This is open to all, whether club members who want some extra practice or members of the public who would like to try their hand at lawn bowls - there is no commitment to turn up every week.
From October 17 our long-running Triples competition will return for another season. This involves making a commitment for the whole summer – triples teams play for points during the minor round and the top four play off in the finals. Non-members will need to join the club to be able to play.
We need someone to organise this competition. In the meantime see Steve Attridge to register your team or for more details.

Night bowls was introduced as a means of gaining potential new members to the club and also as a form of revenue raising.
The concept was formulated along the lines of a member’s experience at a country club many years before.
Continuous participation gives an indication of the events popularity among social bowlers.
