COACHING FOR BEGINNERS & IMPROVERS
EVERY TUESDAY MORNING
STARTING AT 10.30 A.M. ON 28TH APRIL
THE END OF THE BOWLING SEASON HAS BEEN BROUGHT FORWARD AND THE GREEN WILL NOW CLOSE AT 8.30 P.M. ON SUNDAY 13TH SEPTEMBER.
THIS EARLIER CLOSURE IS DUE TO THE NEED TO POLLARD A NUMBER OF TREES AROUND OUR GREEN TO ALLOW IT TO BE KEPT IN THE BEST CONDITION POSSIBLE.
MY APOLOGIES FOR ANY DISAPPOINTMENT THIS MIGHT CAUSE BUT THIS WORK IS ESSENTIAL AND WE WILL ALL BENEFIT OVER TIME.
