BRADFORD on Avon Bowls Club held their annual lunch at Cumberwell Golf Club organised by Ladies’ Secretary, Eileen Holdway.
30 members enjoyed a lovely meal which was followed by the presentation of the trophies to the winners and runners up of last season’s club competitions.
Last season was very successful with the Men’s Triples Team coming third in their league and the White Horse League Team A fourth in theirs. A Triples Team comprising Mark Blyth, Michael Holbrow and Dave Gilchrist reached the final of the Wilson Cup, a Wiltshire county competition.
Although it is the closed season members have been busy enhancing the surrounding area of the green in readiness for the opening on April 17.
It is hoped to recruit more players for the 2016 season and there will be open days when prospective members can come and try out the sport. These will take place on May 7 and May 22 from noon until 4pm. Equipment is provided but please wear flat shoes.
